This is very good news for Bubba Wallace and he might just be the ticket to get Richard Petty Racing back to the front of the pack.

I think what was key for "The King" is that for each of the 3 races that Wallace ran last year, with each race, he improved his finishing position...

yeah,im sure petty prefers a drive that goes forward all the time,not just consistently backwards.

Almirolla has his sights set on Danica's slot. I doubt very much he will get it.

I'm thinking one of the young Xfinity drivers will get it...

I agree, the older and lower performing Cup Series drivers are being put out to pasture. We will continue to see young drivers from the Xfinity Series and maybe even the Camping World Truck Series replacing the retired/"no contract for you!" Cup Series drivers.

Hey All,

Hopefully he does well. Time and talent will tell.

Time, talent, and a good team as well as a good backing organization.
