Michael Jordan Starting NASCAR Team With Bubba Wallace As His Driver
Michael Jordan continues to make big moves! The legendary NBA star has teamed up with Denny Hamlin and created a new NASCAR team.
Hamlin, who is a well-known race car driver, will be co-owner of the team. He is also a longtime friend of Jordan and has worked with him on his brand for years.
Jordan will be the primary owner of a single-car team that will race in the NASCAR Cup Series in 2021 and his driver will be none other than, Bubba Wallace.
The 26-year old driver has nine career top-10 finishes in the Cup Series. In June, Wallace was part of a high-profile situation involving a rope/noose hanging in his garage.
Wallace, who is the only black driver on the NASCAR Cup Series, has raced for Richard Petty Motorsports but recently announced he would not be back with them.
Now, he’s driving for MJ! Let’s get it!
