Bubba Wallace admits noose controversy was 'coincidence,' says he's 'moved on' from incident

At the height of racial tension in the U.S. in 2020, a rope, tied like a noose, was found in NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace's garage at a NASCAR track.

The outcry was loud, and the day after the rope was found, Wallace led a large pack of drivers and other NASCAR personnel before a race at Talladega Superspeedway in Alabama in solidarity amid Black Lives Matter protests.

The FBI ultimately found that the rope was a "garage door pull rope fashioned like a noose" that had been there long before Wallace took over the garage.
