Bubba Wallace Chicken Sh*t Move Exposes_ As the dust settles on two of Daytona’s exhilarating races, NASCAR fans are dissecting the aftermath of the Truck Series and ARCA events. In a twist of fate, ARCA standout Toni Breidinger found herself entangled in misfortune in both races, sidelined early due to her teammates’ missteps.
In the wake of these eventful races, a prominent figure in the NASCAR community, also known as Bubba Wallace’s spotter, didn’t mince words when addressing Gus Dean’s actions. Freddie Kraft, representing 23XI Racing, took aim at Dean’s “chicken sh*t move,” publicly exposing his hypocrisy to millions of fans.
Dean’s post-race remarks about lacking the courage to assist a teammate during a crucial restart drew Kraft’s ire. Kraft, using his online platform, retweeted Dean’s statement, highlighting the inconsistency in his actions and criticizing his failure to support their teammate Jake Finch, who deserved better after a stellar performance.
Following a frenetic Truck Series race, the ARCA 200 at Daytona maintained a similar tone of chaos and drama. While Venturini Motorsports celebrated another triumph at the iconic track, courtesy of Gus Dean, their driver Toni Breidinger faced more disappointment.
Breidinger’s Daytona debut took a sour turn early in the Truck Series race due to an incident with teammate Dean Thompson. Unfortunately, her misfortune repeated in the ARCA race when teammate Gus Dean’s actions once again thwarted her chances of success.
Breidinger wasn’t the only one affected by the chaos. Supercars champion Shane Van Gisbergen expressed his frustration after his Daytona debut ended prematurely due to a lap 4 wreck that also spelled the end for Breidinger’s race.
“It sucked,” Van Gisbergen lamented. “We were just getting into the rhythm, but got caught in the chaos. Hopefully, we can bounce back in the Xfinity race.”
