Video: Bubba Wallace rage quit during Sunday’s iRacing event
NASCAR continues to stage televised iRacing events during the coronavirus pandemic, with drivers joining in at the tracks where the sport would have actually been racing as scheduled. Many drivers streamed their experience, including one who just couldn’t take it anymore.
Bubba Wallace had an incident with Clint Bowyer that apparently enraged Wallace enough that he quit mid-race, saying that it was why he “don’t take this s— serious.”

Wallace’s sponsor, Blue Emu, blasted him on Twitter for quitting and added that they would not continue sponsoring him.
GTK where you stand. Bye bye Bubba. We're interested in drivers, not quitters.

Who says there’s no drama in iRacing? It may be petty, but it’s certainly funny, too.
