After the Kentucky race, Jimmie Johnson blamed Brad Keselowski for the incident which cost him his race. And this feud might continue in the NASCAR All-Star race. At Bristol, Johnson will start at P14 a few places behind Brad who will be at P9.

The race saw Brad finish at the ninth spot while Johnson suffered major losses and had to settle for the 18th. After the race, Jimmie posted a very rare ‘rant’ Tweet.

He said, “I thought today was our day, @DanielsCliff & the @allyracing boys brought me a great car. I do look forward to my next restart behind @keselowski though.

Brad Keselowski gives his comment on the incident with Jimmie Johnson

After the race, Brad talked about the incident and described it as a normal racing incident. He said, “They launched together — the inside lane, Blaney and Jimmie — and they stretched, and then they started to slow down.

“And as they slowed down, I just had a huge run, and I made a move to the inside. I was turning down towards the grass. I might have had a foot or two, but I couldn’t go much lower.

“And I don’t know if he was trying to turn down to block me or if he was trying to turn down to get underneath Blaney, but he turned down, and I was too far forward.”

After that, he added, “There was kind of unavoidable contact at that time. I hate that it ruined his day. I don’t really necessarily know what to do differently. If I stayed in line and just pushed him, I was gonna get gobbled as I did on the last restart, so just part of the mayhem with these restarts.”
