23XI Racing’s Bubba Wallace is currently on cloud nine after winning the Brickyard 400, ending his 100-race winless streak, securing a spot in the playoffs and making history as the first ever black racer to win at Indy Oval. The victory lane visits also helped him to silence the haters, as he is one of the most divisive figures in the sport.

In a recent interview, Bubba Wallace addressed his relationship dynamic with his haters and how some of them responded to his win. The three times Cup Serie race winner asserted that booing is part of the sport, and how he uses the verbal abuse from some of them to succeed in the sport, giving a recent example of a hater calling him a punk.

It’s sports, right? You’re going to have people booing, people cheering. I had a guy today call me a punk. I was like, Okay, punks get trophies, I guess. It’s sports. Some different than others, but I definitely heard the cheers, and I appreciated that.

Bubba Wallace said via Motorsports.com.

Further talking about the point, the 23XI Racing star driver Bubba Wallace asserted that the haters are changing the goal post of expectations for him every time he succeeds, making the game rigged. But he is ready for the challenge, with his passionate fans as his back up, as they always expose the haters online as well in the grandstands.

It’s something I’ve paid more attention to in the recent year, years, maybe months. I know there’s a lot of Bubba Wallace fans out there and a lot of support. They try to combat the naysayers and all of this stuff. Does anybody know where the goal post got moved to now? Did it get moved yet? It’s rigged? Oh, of course.

Bubba Wallace manifested the Brickyard 400 win

Following the victory and post-race party, Bubba Wallace made a wild claim regarding how he manifested it on X. He pointed out that he saw the signs of him potentially winning coming into the weekend and had a vision in the drivers meeting that he is going to take the Brickyard trophy back home with him.

I’m not much of the superstitious type but there were a lot of signs when waking up Sunday morning that led me to manifesting tons of positivity. Walked in the drivers meeting and said I’m gonna be the one taking that trophy home. Nothing or nobody was gonna take the vision I had for Sunday away from me.

Bubba Wallace wrote on X.

He then admitted that it’s unbelievable that he was able to make that dream/vision a reality with a solid performance. Wallace is lighted with how everything played out and appreciated the support he got from the No:23 fandom.

To see it all play out and come together… it’s still unbelievable even though I believed it before it all happened. Life is crazy. The support and love is well heard and felt. Appreciate you all!

Bubba Wallace added.

While it’s crazy to say Bubba Wallace manifested the win, it is sure that the positive feeling he got from the supposed vision played a significant role in him bagging the win. He is one of the drivers that on the grid whose mental state, alongside emotions, determines how he performs on a day. On Sunday at Indy, he was positive and he was the winner.
