During the NASCAR Cup Series race at Talladega Superspeedway on October 29, 2026, drivers Bubba Wallace and Carson Hocevar were caught on camera playing rock-paper-scissors during a caution period.
The lighthearted moment occurred while the field was slowed, and the interaction was broadcast on the television feed. Wallace's spotter later disputed a radio report regarding the incident.
The race at Talladega is known for its close-quarters racing and frequent cautions. The rock-paper-scissors exchange provided a brief moment of levity amid the high-speed competition.
