Brad Keselowski Goes Berserk on the Radio After NASCAR’s Rick Hendrick Favouritism
NASCAR
Chaos and confusion reigned under the half-lit skies at Darlington Raceway. Still, it was a storm on the radio channels that really lit up the night. Brad Keselowski went on an impassioned tirade, criticizing the race organizers for handling a lighting issue during Sunday’s Southern 500.
Keselowski’s fiery words illuminate a larger issue
The drama unfolded during Stage 2, around the 180th lap, when NASCAR officials issued a caution due to a lack of lighting in Turns 3 and 4. Brad Keselowski, no stranger to passionate outbursts, took to his radio in evident frustration, questioning the decision-making process: “What are we doing here, TJ?” His spotter, TJ Majors, could only reply, “They’re gonna red flag it.” But it was the RFK driver’s jab at the star of Rick Hendrick-Kyle Larson, referencing #5 of Larson’s dirt track experience, that had ears perking up: “The 5?? 90% of the dirt tracks he runs at have less lights than that!”
Denny Hamlin shines amidst Darlington’s Dim Drama with Brad Keselowski
Denny Hamlin, who had his own spotlight while leading the race, seemed unperturbed by the murky conditions. Fresh off an Xfinity Series victory, Denny Hamlin was firmly in the mix, rubbing tires with Tyler Reddick and Kyle Larson.
As Darlington tries to recover from its less-than-illuminating moment and the radio meltdown of Brad Keselowski simmers down, questions remain unanswered. Is there favoritism in how NASCAR is officiated? And will the fiery words of Brad Keselowski spark a change in race management or just add fuel to an already blazing rivalry among drivers? As the season revs into its next phase, keep an eye on Keselowski—his next radio outburst might just be the canary in the coal mine for NASCAR’s most significant issues.
