Bubba Wallace's wife, Amanda, recently shared her Christmas plans on Instagram, where she frequently posts glimpses from the couple's lives. With a significant following, Amanda keeps fans updated on the life of the Wallace household beyond NASCAR.
Bubba Wallace and Amanda Carter share a long history, having met in high school and reconnecting in 2015 at a college football game. Their relationship blossomed, leading Wallace to propose at a picturesque Oregon waterfall in June 2021. The couple tied the knot on December 31, 2022.
Amanda Wallace, along with her husband, recently celebrated their first Christmas as a family of three. Their son Becks, was born earlier this year in September. Sharing a few snaps of her Christmas outing, Bubba Wallace's wife wrote on Instagram:
"Decided to do something a lil different for Christmas this year ❤️ started off with some Chinese 🤤 then saw the Rockettes perform 👯♀️ and then wandered the city before having a omakase sushi dinner. Ended the evening watching the Grinch of course 🎄Becks slept through most of it though, except at night 😴😴😴"
Meanwhile, Bubba Wallace fell short of making the 2024 Cup Series playoffs after a winless regular season. Despite six top-five finishes, he couldn't match the performance of 23XI Racing teammate Tyler Reddick, who clinched the regular-season championship and progressed to the Championship 4.
The Cup Series will return to action for the Clash at Bowman Gray Stadium in February 2025. Fans can catch the action live on Fox, MRN, and SiriusXM's NASCAR Channel.
Spire Motorsports praises Bubba Wallace protégé Rajah Caruth amid contract renewal: "Our organization believes in Rajah Caruth"
Spire Motorsports has signed Rajah Caruth for the 2025 season, where he will drive the #71 Chevrolet Silverado full-time in the Truck Series. The 22-year-old also renewed his sponsorship with Hendrickcars.com. In 2024, Caruth showcased his talent by making the NASCAR Truck Series playoffs and finishing an impressive seventh in the standings.
Following his contract renewal, Caruth was praised by co-owner of Spire Motorsports, Jeff Dickerson, who believes that Caruth was the right choice for Spire. Dickerson said (via NASCAR),
“He took the incredibly high expectations we placed on him to start the year and exceeded them in every way. I’m impressed with how he’s balanced his commitments to his race team, his craft, the media, and his growing fanbase while managing a full workload at Winston-Salem State University.
"Our organization believes in Raj, and he has consistently shown the leadership, form, and work ethic that every team looks for in a driver. Everyone at Spire Motorsports is really happy to run it back with him next season.”
Meanwhile, Bubba Wallace will also have a new teammate in the 2025 Cup Series season, Riley Herbst. Herbst will pilot the #35 Toyota Camry XSE for 23XI Racing from next season.
