Bio
Bubba Wallace drives the No. 23 23XI Racing Toyota Camry and is in his ninth full-time season in the NASCAR Cup Series. Wallace became the second Black driver to win in the Cup Series with his victory in 2021 at Talladega Superspeedway -- the first of his career and first for 23XI Racing. His third and most recent win came in July 2025 in the Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, marking his first crown-jewel victory. He finished runner-up to William Byron for Sunoco Rookie of the Year in 2018, a freshman season that saw Wallace place second in the Daytona 500 and post two other top-10 finishes. Wallace has six total NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series wins, becoming the first Black driver since Hall of Famer Wendell Scott to win a NASCAR race when he went to Victory Lane in 2013 at Martinsville Speedway.
