In an extraordinary act of solidarity with NASCAR's only Black driver, dozens of drivers pushed the car belonging to Wallace to the front of the field before Monday's race as FBI agents nearby tried to find out who left a noose in his garage stall over the weekend. Wallace became just the second Black driver to win at NASCAR's top Cup Series level when rain stopped the playoff race at Talladega Superspeedway, Monday, Oct. 4, 2021. (AP Photo/John Bazemore, File)
