In a development sending shockwaves through the racing world, sources close to NASCAR report that Bubba Wallace has been released from his team following renewed and outspoken support for the Black Lives Matter movement.

While no official reason for the separation has been confirmed, fans and commentators are pointing to Wallace’s activism as a likely factor — reigniting debate about the place of social justice in high-profile sports leagues.
Wallace, the only full-time Black driver in NASCAR’s top series, has long used his platform to speak out against racial injustice, previously racing with a Black Lives Matter-themed car in 2020. His dismissal has sparked immediate backlash on social media, with supporters calling it a “deeply troubling signal” about NASCAR’s commitment to inclusivity.
