Sad News: About a minute ago NASCAR Driver confirm dead in a Car Cr…….

NASCAR Racing has witnessed family members continuing their legacy in the sport. Often, it is the younger generation that carries the torch, adding to the rich history of their family’s NASCAR story.

However, Mike Wallace, the older brother of Kenny Wallace and younger sibling of legendary driver Rusty Wallace, is embarking on an ambitious NASCAR return.

The 65-year-old driver will attempt to qualify for the Daytona 500 with MBM Motorsports.

Wallace’s announcement had mixed reactions, with many questioning whether he was fit to compete at Daytona given his long leave of absence.

Nick Bromberg’s comments, in particular, stood out.

“A 65-year-old who hasn’t competed in a Cup Series race or a top-3 series NASCAR race on an oval since 2015 and last raced in a top-3 series NASCAR race overall in 2020 probably shouldn’t get automatic approval to attempt the Daytona 500.”

This development sparked a debate online, which even saw Kenny Wallace defend his brother.

And even Dale Earnhardt Jr. is siding with Mike Wallace after he came to know about the actual reason for his return to competitive racing.

2015 was Wallace’s last attempt at the Great American Race, but he did continue to race in the Xfinity Series until 2020.

Unlike his brother Rusty, Mike had to rely on the park and start teams, as full-time opportunities were few and far during his Cup career.

But despite being stacked against the odds, he managed to make the most of these opportunities.

Even Dale Jr. highlighted this while backing his return to the Daytona 500.
