Bubba Wallace and Ryan Blaney often engage in humorous exchanges on social media. The NASCAR Cup Series drivers from 23XI Racing and the reigning Cup Series champion have a close friendship and are well-known in the racing community. They are notorious for their playful banter online, particularly on X (formerly Twitter), which often leaves fans amused and bewildered.
Their most recent exchange occurred when Blaney made a post on X, misspelling the name of rapper Lil Jon. He wrote, “Roller blades, Lil John and Luda got this halftime show ROLLING now.” Blaney was referring to his own appearance during the Super Bowl halftime show alongside Lil Jon and Ludacris.
Blaney quickly realized his mistake and, as he didn’t have the verified blue tick feature on X, he posted another message apologizing and blaming it on autocorrect. He stated, “My apologies. JON. Damn you autocorrect.” Wallace, who came across Blaney’s post, took a playful jab at him, responding with “uncultured” in his tweet. Fans in the comment section enjoyed this interaction.
Both Wallace and Blaney are skilled drivers when it comes to Superspeedway racing. Since their debut in the Cup series, they have consistently performed well on such tracks. As they head into the 2024 season opener, the Daytona 500, both drivers are eager to secure their first victory on the track.
While they have both achieved Superspeedway wins at Talladega, neither of them has been able to clinch a win at Daytona. They are among the drivers with the most front-row finishes in the Daytona 500 without a victory. Blaney, despite being a NASCAR Cup champion, has yet to win the Daytona 500.
Entering the 2024 season, both drivers are coming off their best year in a Cup car, and their main objective is to continue their success with a strong performance at Daytona. Blaney aims to defend his title, while Wallace hopes to make a deep playoff run and be a significant contender in the 2024 championship race.
