His third career NASCAR Cup victory delivered Wallace's first victory in the series' four crown jewel events, the others being the Daytona 500, Coca-Cola 600 and Southern 500.

Bubba Wallace and his wife, Amanda Wallace, have a lot to celebrate.

"Bubba Wallace became the first Black driver to win a major race on Indianapolis Motor Speedway's 2.5-mile oval," ESPN wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter, following the race.
