NASCAR has released a photo of the rope found in Bubba Wallace's garage at Talladega ... and yeah, THAT'S A NOOSE.
Of course, NASCAR has said the rope had been fashioned into a noose by an unknown person back in October 2019. Investigators determined it was NOT made as a specific threat to Wallace, who is Black.
NASCAR says the item is a garage pull rope. Wallace says he's raced out of hundreds of garages in his life and has never seen one fashioned as a noose until Talladega. Earlier this week, Bubba praised the FBI and NASCAR for"acting swiftly and treating this as a real threat." Bubba admits he's had an emotional few days but he's relieved"that the investigation revealed that this wasn’t what we feared it was."
