A NASCAR Fan Threw A Beer Can On The Track As Bubba Wallace Was About To Win The Brickyard 400

Hoping to cause a caution?

It’s safe to say that Bubba Wallace is one of NASCAR‘s most polarizing drivers. The only black driver in the sport, Bubba has plenty of haters who are quick to laugh when things go wrong for him and his #23 car. But yesterday, those folks had to watch as he took the checkered flag at one of racing’s most historic tracks, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, to win the Brickyard 400.

There was plenty of drama to end the race. Bubba was leading with six laps to go and seemed to be easily on his way to the win when a pop-up shower soaked part of the track, forcing NASCAR to red flag the race for rain.

Luckily it was just a quick shower and NASCAR was able to get the race back underway, but questions remained about which drivers at the front of the field could make it all the way on fuel. Bubba decided not to pit for gas (obviously, because he was leading the race), and when the race went back to green he managed to hold off Kyle Larson and keep the lead heading down the backstretch.

But unfortunately for Bubba, a massive wreck on the backstretch before the field took the white flag set up yet another overtime, and would force him to try to hold off Larson once again.

Obviously that wasn’t what the #23 team wanted to see when they were already running low on fuel, but Bubba managed to keep the lead during the second overtime and hold off Kyle Larson on the final two laps of the race to win his first race of 2025 and his first crown jewel event, locking himself into the playoffs with his first win in 100 races.

Apparently though, a fan in the stands wasn’t happy about it – and tried to cause another caution themselves.

As the field was exiting turn four and coming to the white flag for the final lap, somebody in the stands threw a beer can on the track right in front of Bubba and the rest of the field.
