If the 2023 Cup Series season was anything to go by, Brad Keselowski looks to be on his way to becoming one of the few people to taste success in NASCAR's highest division as a driver and a team owner. The veteran motorsports athlete is a former Cup champion and currently, a driver & co-owner of Roush Fenway Keselowski Racing. Several fans and pundits suggest that his joining the team has massively elevated RFK but it seems Keselowski is only getting started. He has won several honors in his racing career and is unsurprisingly one of the wealthiest drivers in the competition today.

Brad Keselowski's Cup Series Team

Keselowski's career reached its peak with Roger Penske's team but right now, the veteran racer is putting in the effort to take Roush Fenway Keselowski Racing to the place where it once was. After he joined in 2022, there has been a visible improvement in the team's performance. They finished the season with 3 wins in 2023, including a famous 1-2 victory at Daytona.

The motorsports veteran is also the owner and founder of Keselowski Advanced Manufacturing. As per the official website, "Keselowski Advanced Manufacturing (KAM) is a vertically integrated simulation and engineering through serial production manufacturing company with Additive Manufacturing (LPBF-M) and CNC Capabilities." 

Brad Keselowski’s Charity Foundation

The #6 driver has also founded Brad Keselowski's Checkered Flag Foundation. The organization was established in 2010 after the former Cup Series champion visited the Walter Reed Medical Center in 2009. He was inspired to give back to the brave women and men who served the country and were injured in the process. According to the website, the foundation has raised $3.8 million and helped out over 250 individuals and organizations. It's not only war veterans that the charity supports, but first responders and active military personnel as well.

Brad Keselowski Controversies

He might be one of the most talented and consistent drivers in NASCAR but that does not mean that Brad Keselowski has not seen his fair share of troubles. One of the biggest penalties he has faced came in 2022 when the RFK Racing man was fined a whopping 100 points by NASCAR. After the Atlanta race that year, officials found a tail panel modification that was illegal and cost the veteran dearly.

Again in 2022, he was involved in a controversial decision by NASCAR which involved not bringing out the caution despite there being an accident on the track. The then-Penske Racing driver hit the wall late during the race but NASCAR surprised several fans and insiders by opting against bringing out the caution as Keselowski kept his car going.

NASCAR official Elton Sawyer had said of the incident, “Obviously, we’re monitoring that, the 6 is in the fence. Brad is listening through his spotter and race control that we needed the 6 to get down on the apron. Once he did that, it means he’s kind of out of harm’s way and he’s driving around. If he comes to a complete stop down on the apron at that point, then we’re going to have to go get him.”

The racing veteran provided a moment of comic relief in the 2023 Cup Series season at the Coke Zero Sugar 400 in Daytona. The red flag had fallen and under those circumstances, the cars were meant to be stationary in the pits. However, the #6 was seen going around in circles. Confusion and humor gripped the others on track and the fans but it was later revealed that Keselowski's car had caught on fire and he had no choice but to do what he did to put it out.

The whole controversy surrounding the car inspections is also one of the infamous moments of Brad Keselowski's career. Both his and teammate Joey Logano's cars failed pre-race inspections as NASCAR found something wrong with their rear-end housings, and confiscated them. The Penske Racing cars still managed to finish in the top 10 but the penalties were then levied. The 2012 Cup Series champion was not a happy man at the time as he lashed out at NASCAR for being partial against his team.

"Our guys are innovative and we're looking at the rules, looking at areas where we can get an edge like everybody else," Keselowski had said at the time. "I don't think there's anything we did wrong. It's obviously a judgment."

Despite these incidents, Keselowski has managed to entertain his fans, who have loved seeing him in the entertainment industry too.
