NASCAR driver Brad Keselowski recently attended an NFL game between the Detroit Lions and the Minnesota Vikings with his brother Brian Keselowski. The Lions beat the Vikings in dominant fashion following which Brian shared a post on social media, reflecting on the intense matchup.

The Keselowski brothers, devoted Detroit fans, witnessed running back Jahmyr Gibbs deliver a standout performance for the Lions. Gibbs led the team to the NFC North division title and helped secure the top seed, scoring all four of the Lions' touchdowns in a game that propelled them to the top spot.

Following the end of the game, Brian shared a picture with his brother, RFK Racing's driver and team owner Brad, and wrote on X:

"Had a great time last night in Detroit. What an atmosphere. They really know how to get a crowd going for the big games. Can’t wait to see where we go in the playoffs. 1 seed, offense is so good and defense played great last night. Possible some of our injured guys come back too."

Former Cup Series champion Brad Keselowski has had an impressive NASCAR career with 39 Cup Series wins, including a victory at the iconic Brickyard 400. He captured the 2012 Cup Series title with Team Penske and also won the 2010 Xfinity Series championship, showcasing his versatility and success across NASCAR's top divisions.

Keselowski secured a playoff spot in 2024 with a win at the Goodyear 400 but was eliminated in the Round of 16. In 36 races, he achieved 14 top-ten and nine top-five finishes, with a season-average finish better than champion Joey Logano. RFK Racing also announced former SHR driver Ryan Preece as a third driver for their 2025 lineup.


Brad Keselowski’s new driver speaks out on high profile move following SHR's exit

Former Stewart Haas Racing driver Ryan Preece recently shed light on his move to Brad Keselowski's RFK Racing. Preece will pilot the #60 Ford Mustang Dark Horse starting from the 2025 Cup Series campaign.

The 34-year-old Connecticut native's future in NASCAR's top division was uncertain as Stewart Haas Racing announced its exit from the sport after the 2024 campaign. However, after securing his spot with RFK Racing, Keselowski's newest driver reflected on his move to the team.

"Being able to lean on Brad (Keselowski), the knowledge that he has, as well as what he's been able to do as a leader for RFK, is very impressive. It started with a phone call actually. I remember walking into SHR's building and I saw Brad was calling. That ended up being a conversation of there maybe an opportunity of where we're gonna be expanding to three car, would you, would you like to come drive for us?" he added. [0:40-01:09]

Catch Ryan Preece at Bowman Gray Stadium for the pre-season Clash on February 2nd at 8:00 PM Eastern time. For fans at home, the race will exclusively be available on FOX, MRN, and SiriusXM.
