Brad Keselowski issued rallying cry to his team ahead of Homestead race

Brad Keselowski, the co-owner of the Roush Fenway Keselowski Racing, addressed his team prior to the Homestead-Miami Speedway race this weekend at Homestead, Florida.

Speaking to the team, he stated how he tried almost everything as he grew up racing, but in the end, went after "values" and "behaviors" that drove him towards success.

Here's what he said:

“When I grew up in racing, I think I pretty much did every job except for the gas man and jackman which is pretty self-explanatory… Obviously, I drove the race car, crew chief, race engineer, and mechanic one time… I wasn’t very good at any of those things, to be honest, compared to you guys."

"Everybody is way better at those things than I ever was. But I knew still what it took. The most important thing to me outside of being talented to doing it was having a set of values and behaviors that drove me to do it at the highest level possible," he further added.

Currently, Keselowski is standing in 30th place in the championship with 73 points. So far, he had an underwhelming start to his season, with no win, top five, or top 10 to his name. Keselowski's average start and finish position has also been poor with 23.2 and 24.8, respectively.
