NASCAR on Sunday released a statement revealing that a noose was reportedly found in top driver Bubba Wallaces Talladega garage stall. We have launched an immediate investigation, and will do everything we can to identify the person(s) responsible and eliminate them from the sport. NASCAR said on Sunday.
Bubba Wallace is NASCARs only top level black driver and a very vocal supporter of Black Lives Matter.
A fellow team member reportedly found a noose in Wallaces garage stall after NASCAR banned the use of the Confederate flag.
An insider says the noose may be a serpentine belt.
