Following up: Bubba said the FBI said it wasn't a functioning noose. Since this is not a common garage pull rope knot, someone was sitting in the garage bored and fashioned it. It's unfortunate NASCAR doesn't have a garage pull rope knot standard.
Most of these that I've ever seen on residential garage doors had a plastic red handle on a rope short enough that it would not be exposed to the exterior. If there is a grip to open from outside, it is usually a metal handle. The long pulls at the track are obviously intended for someone to be able to quickly jerk the door up from outside the garage bay.Following up: Bubba said the FBI said it wasn't a functioning noose.

just catching up after playing gears for a few hours. God NASCAR and the Wallace team just need to shut the hell up. They can’t get out of their own way now. “It wasn’t a hate crime but we are going to continue to find the origins of the noose.” and everybody is still emphasizing noose.
Just stop it. They have come such a long way since the late 90’s and the more they fall over themselves trying to save face here they just make it worse.
But wait, I was told 20 times yesterday that Bubba Smollett never saw the "noose"Seems he saw it.
Well duh....
Bubba Wallace On Rope Found In Garage: “It’s A Straight-Up Noose” – Deadline
NASCAR Driver Bubba Wallace Speaks Out About Investigation, Rope Found In Garage: “It’s A Straight-Up Noose”
While the FBI concluded earlier in the day that the alleged noose was simply a door pull tied by a previous occupant, Watson indicated that his team had proof otherwise.
“From the evidence that we have — that I have,” said Wallace, “it’s a straight-up noose.”
“Whether someone tied it in 2019…It wasn’t directed at me,” said Wallace, “but it was a noose.”
“It doesn’t matter if we provide evidence, photos,” said the NASCAR driver. “It will always be photoshopped. I will always have haters.”
