We offer our thanks to NASCAR, Mr. Wallace, and everyone who cooperated with this investigation.”NASCAR released the following statement:NASCAR Statement“The FBI has completed its investigation at Talladega Superspeedway and determined that Bubba Wallace was not the target of a hate crime. The FBI report concludes, and photographic evidence confirms, that the garage door pull rope fashioned like a noose had been positioned there since as early as last fall. This was obviously well before the 43 team’s arrival and garage assignment. We appreciate the FBI’s quick and thorough investigation and are thankful to learn that this was not an intentional, racist act against Bubba. We remain steadfast in our commitment to providing a welcoming and inclusive environment for all who love racing.– NASCARThanks for signing up!Watch for us in your inbox.Subscribe Now✕× Close Ad
