You can see it's not a thick rope, probably 1/4 inch, and the loop is maybe 3-4 inches wide. You couldn't fit a baby's head through that loop.
Big thick rope? The rope is neither big or thick, just seen from a closer view in one photo; that's how perspective works.

Bubba and Nascar can call it a noose and seem to like to, but IT IS KNOT A NOOSE
So it has to actually function in order to be seen as a noose? I don't remember hearing anything even implying that it was fully functional. Who'd have tested it?

The Nascar photo of the "noose" was taken Sunday afternoon, we know this because you can see puddles on the pavement, rain was reason race on Sunday was postponed until Monday.
Where did it say when the photo with the noose still hanging was taken? From nascar.com: NASCAR completes investigation into No. 43 at Talladega | NASCAR
"Monday, June 22
– Early Monday a.m.: FBI Birmingham office reaches out to NASCAR.
~ 10 a.m.: FBI arrives at Talladega Superspeedway with 15 field agents to begin investigation. NASCAR provides the FBI with a list of personnel with access to the garage, as well as video and images taken from the weekend and the 2019 fall weekend as well."

Wouldn't that suggest that it was an earlier photo, as you seem to imply below?*

Yeah, didn't see 'em. Did a search for "Talladega noose" & "Talladega rope" images; nothing but what we've already seen right here. Have any links? Please, no more looong, boring videos though.

*See above.

I don't know about "brand new"; are all the other ropes dirtier? You call it a hoax, but the FBI never seemed to come to that conclusion.
