NASCAR hasn’t even been back a full week and already Samantha Busch is having to defend her husband on Twitter.
Kyle Busch accidentally wrecked Chase Elliott out of Wednesday night’s Cup Series race at Darlington Raceway with 28 laps remaining. The incident prompted Elliott, who was in second at the time of the crash, to give Busch the middle finger as the Joe Gibbs Racing driver drove by under caution. Busch owned up to his mistake after the race and offered a sincere apology, but that didn’t stop his haters from doing their thing on Twitter.
Thankfully, Busch’s wife was there to take the Twitter trolls head-on.

Something tells us this could be a recurring theme during the 2020 season.
As for Elliott, he reportedly won’t face any discipline for his actions Wednesday night.
