Bubba Wallace is thankful that a noose found in his garage at Talladega Superspeedway wasn't intended for him, but he doesn't think the ensuing investigation was an overreaction.
"Are we hypersensitive to everything that's going on in the world now? Absolutely," Wallace, NASCAR's only Black full-time driver, told ESPN's First Take on Wednesday. "But if you were in my shoes -- and I doubt anybody could walk in my shoes, especially at this moment -- you would go down that route time and time again."
The FBI determined that Wallace was not the victim of a hate crime and that a pull rope fashioned like a noose had been on the garage door since as early as October.
