Brad Keselowski is "amazed" by his wife Paige on handling their kids amid NASCAR life
In a recent YouTube video, RFK Racing driver Brad Keselowski shared insights on how he and his wife, Paige, balance parenthood and racing.
Amid the hectic racing schedule, Keselowski acknowledged his wife's sacrifices in managing their family life, including taking care of their children and attending official events when necessary. He said:
"I look at my wife Paige and all the things that she does and, you know, I'm just amazed. I don't know how she keeps up with it all. It's hard enough to keep up with three kids and be a, you know, a stay-at-home mom, but then to do it while we're traveling, you know, 30-some weeks a year and appearances in between and all kinds of other events, you know, it's a lot for anyone to take on and she does it really well."

One of Keselowski's primary motivations is the joy of winning and sharing those victories with his family. In his YouTube vlog, Keselowski also opened up on why he wants to continue racing. He said:
"I cherish the moments that we had, where we've done that, but I want more of those moments and certainly is a deep inspiration for me to continue racing for a long time." [6:27]

The #6 Ford driver came close to winning the chaotic Talladega race where he finished second to Ricky Stenhouse Jr. by a margin of 0.006 seconds.
