Bubba Wallace had a very strong run at Richmond this past weekend with an average running position of sixth, his best on a short track since the previous Richmond race last summer. He ranked fifth in driver rating at 102.6 and seventh in average speed. Wallace was running fifth before spinning out Kyle Larson in the closing laps, which resulted in an overtime finish that culminated in Bubba's boss, Denny Hamlin, winning the race. Wallace insisted the contact was not intentional despite his history of several previous incidents with Larson. However, Larson ended up getting the last laugh as he still finished third while Wallace was relegated to 13th after a slow pit stop on the resulting caution. Wallace did outrun his teammate, Tyler Reddick, all day, but Reddick got the better finish. Bubba's pace as well as Toyotas pace is still promising for the rest of the season.--Sean Wrona - RotoBaller
