October 5, 20213 yr Author Bubba Wallace said becoming the first black driver in 58 years to win a race in Nascar's premier series brought "a lot of emotion". Wallace took his first Nascar Cup Series win at Talladega Superspeedway on Monday, after rain cut the race short with the 27-year-old in the lead. The last black driver to do so was Wendell Scott in 1963. "I never think about those things," American Wallace said when asked about his achievement. "But when you say it like that, it obviously brings a lot of emotion, a lot of joy to my family, fans, friends. It's pretty cool. Just proud to be a winner in the Cup Series."

November 15, 20213 yr That was super amazing the send-off for Rossi yesterday. What an unbelievable career. I've only recently started getting into MotoGP as of last year but his name always transcended the sport and it's hard not to love the guy. A true legend retiring but it's in good hands with all the new talent on the grid.
