Brad Keselowski explains his NASCAR team ownership decision to Kelley Earnhardt

In the episode with Kelley Earnhardt, Brad Keselowski talked about his discussion of taking part ownership in a team while competing full-time. The $45 million-worth Keselowski (as per Celebrity Net Worth) joined Roush Fenway Racing with co-owers Jack Roush and John W. Henry in 2022, which started as Roush Racing in 1988. The team added a third full-time car, No. 60 Ford to the Cup Series with driver Ryan Preece for the 2025 season.

Keselowski mentioned how being a driver can be easier because they don't have to worry about business issues like unpaid partners or unexpected expenses. However, he stated that the frustration over lack of control made him take ownership of RKF Racing.

"I bet your drivers would say the same thing: 'I’m glad I don’t have to worry about that.' But then there’s other moments where you’re like, 'Gosh, we were right on the cusp of winning, but we were missing this one piece,' and it’s something outside of my control as a driver, Keselowski said (04:15 onwards).

"You know, there’s a little bit of the control freak that I think we all have, where you’re like, 'Man, we were missing this one piece, I knew how to get it, couldn’t do it because I didn’t have the, you know, kind of the authority and command authority to do it.' So, I like that part of being an owner. That excites me," he added.

Keselowski had also started a racing team, Brad Keselowski Racing, in 2007 which closed in 2017.
