Bubba Wallace discusses rising performance standards at 23XI Racing

Bubba Wallace says the expectations at 23XI Racing have intensified as the team evolves into a regular NASCAR contender. Since joining the organization in 2021, Wallace has observed the team transition from a new entry to a consistent threat, bolstered by victories from teammates Tyler Reddick and Corey Heim this season. Wallace credits co-owners Michael Jordan and Denny Hamlin for the high standard set within the team. While Wallace reached the playoffs this year without a regular-season win, he maintains that the team must continue to put forth maximum effort to match the success of his peers. The No. 23 Toyota driver prepares to enter the playoffs at Darlington this Sunday for the Cook Out Southern 500. He acknowledges that the competitive nature of the organization requires him to adapt to these growing pressures as the title race begins.
