Changes Made to Bubba Wallace’s Pit Crew Amid Frustrating Season

It’s safe to say the 2022 NASCAR Cup Series season has likely not gone the way Bubba Wallace had hoped.

The 23XI Racing driver kicked off the season with a second place finish, but things have gone relatively downhill since as a pattern of pit crew mistakes continues to flare in recent weeks. The miscues led to part of Wallace’s pit crew being swapped for Christopher Bell’s, who holds the final playoff spot with a 20-point lead on Kevin Harvick.

Joe Gibbs Racing leases pit crews to 23XI Racing, and according to NBC Sports, Bell’s team will feature two new tire changers and a new tire carrier this weekend.
