Brad Keselowski's NASCAR career is marked by significant achievements, including the 2012 Cup Series championship and 39 race victories, highlighted by a win at the prestigious Brickyard 400. His dominance extends beyond the Cup Series, as he also secured the 2010 Xfinity Series championship, further cementing his status as one of the sport’s top drivers.

$45 million worth Keselowski (as per Celebrity Net Worth) started the EchoPark Automotive Grand Prix in P26. The #6 driver navigated his way through the field, going up 10 places despite the extremely hot conditions in his car on a sunny day. Keeping all these factors in check, Truck Series driver Parker Kligerman shared a post by RFK Racing on X, commending Keselowski for his valiant effort.

Following the race, Brad Keselowski visited the infield care center, receiving IV fluids before being released once he started feeling better.

Meanwhile, the 41-year-old NASCAR driver and team owner's start to the 2025 Cup Series season has not been how he would have expected it to be or from himself. His finish at CTA with a malfunctioned cool suit was his best result in this year's campaign. However, with his kill and experience, the former Cup Series champion could bounce back soon.

Keselowski's RFK racing driver and teammate Chris Buescher had a wonderful day at the newly configured road course at COTA as the #17 driver secured a top-10 finish, in P7. The EFK drivers will be seen at Phoenix Raceway for the Shriners Children's 500 next Sunday, March 9.
