Two weeks after Wallace, NASCAR's only black driver, successfully convinced NASCAR to ban the Confederate flag, a noose was found in his garage. "Late this afternoon, NASCAR was made aware that a noose was found in the garage stall of the 43 team. We are angry and outraged, and cannot state strongly enough how seriously we take this heinous act," NASCAR said in a statement. "We have launched an immediate investigation, and will do everything we can to identify the person(s) responsible and eliminate them from the sport."
