"Not looking back" - Brad Keselowski shares in-flight thoughts on leaving Roger Penske for RFK after NASCAR finale
Brad Keselowski recently shared his parting thoughts following NASCAR's final race of the season. The 40-year-old also touched upon his departure from Team Penske soon after Joey Logano brought home the Ford roster's fifth Cup Series Championship title.
RFK Racing driver and co-owner Keselowski secured Roger Penske's first Cup trophy in 2012 and drove the #2 Ford/Dodge 34 times through the victory lane under the Penske banner. Additionally, the Michigan native won the 2010 Xfinity Series championship for the Mooresville, North Carolina-based organization.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Keselowski, the current #6 Ford driver, shared a thread of notes and claimed to be unstirred by his transition from Penske to RFK. He wrote:
"I’m not looking back wondering what would’ve been if I stayed at Team Penske. Success as a driver owner, even if less as of today, means so much more to me."
The Michigan native managed only one win after three seasons with RFK when he snapped his 110-winless streak in the 2024 Goodyear 400 race at Darlington Raceway. However, Keselowski seems content with his position amid new developments inside the RFK shed.
Brad Keselowski hints at big "official" announcements from RFK and also comments on his future in Cup Series
Veteran driver Brad Keselowski has been a part of NASCAR's premier division for almost 17 years and has accumulated 36 wins in more than 500 starts.
After competing majorly for Team Penske in the Cup Series, Keselowski joined Roush Fenway Racing (now RFK Racing) as a part-owner and a driver in 2022. Notably, the two-car operation, driven by #6 Keselowski and #17 Chris Buescher, has reportedly been considering an expansion to a three-car team for the 2025 season.
In a recent thread of posts on X, Keselowski hinted at a big announcement from the Ford roster in the next couple of weeks. He wrote:
"Look for several (official) big announcement from RFK in the next 2 weeks."
Moreover, in a conversation with Fox Sports' Bob Pockrass, Keselowski revealed that RFK Racing's plans for the 2025 season will become clearer in the near future.
On a personal front, the Ford Mustang driver shunned any retirement rumors that arose as the 2024 NASCAR season came to an end.
"Finally, thanks to my partners and fans for all your support this year. Couldn’t be here without you! And anyone who thinks I’m ready to retire can kiss my tail. I have a lot of fight left in me and already can’t wait for 2025. Cya then," wrote Keselowski on X.
