Bubba raged quit during the Bristol irace.

Bowyer suggested he was out of resets. Whatever that means.

Suarez is a little b***h. So is Larson

Anyone think the Bubba Wallace and Blu-Emu stuff is legit? I know he quit the race. They posted he was fired.

With a Trump “You’re fired” video tweet. Lulz.

It is. They dropped Bubba. They were just savage about it on twitter.

The way Larson backed up and into the inside wall and then came back at Suarez a 2nd time had me rolling.

Like I get it in real life, but it's a video game* lol. Like, he had to be day drinking

*I have broken a TV back in the day.

Fox never once showed Larson on the screen this week. They had in the previous two races. Perhaps he was drinking

Seemed like they were just looking for the first excuse they could find.

Well he kinda sucks sooooooo

I didn’t want to be the first on VN to say it since people want to hope he’s good since he’s a Vol. But I agree.

 

[Electric Orange]

The real sponsor dropped him because he quit during the virtual race? That's lame.

I like him and want him to succeed, but I call it like it is.

Be interesting to see what happens with that. This whole iracing thing was a great idea but the last two weeks of this have been disastrous. Bubba loses a sponsor cuz of a rage quit, which dumb or not, it happened and then this.

I can tell you what will happen, his sponsors will bail on him and he'll be out of a ride. His career is most likely done.

 

[TennesseeFan07]

Definitely terrible PR for a sport already with a racial stereotype.

 

[YankeeVol]

Larson suspended for using slur in virtual race

Yea, not likely.

 

[gordonr24]

Stupid mistake by Larson. Makes NASCAR look bad. Because he’s highly talented, he’ll get another chance, depending if Ganassi terminates him. But if he was just another driver making laps on an underfunded team, his career would be done.

The other half of the battle will be finding another sponsor for Kyle. Assuming McDonalds and Credit One Bank will drop him for PR.

In today's "woke" world using the N word is one of the worst things you can do if you're income is dependent upon sponsorship. He's done in cup for a few seasons.
