DARLINGTON, S.C. (AP) — There were so many special parts of Brad Keselowski’s first NASCAR victory in three years, it was difficult for him to say what meant the most.
It was the 36th of his career and his second at Darlington Raceway, which he reveres as an ultimate test of drivers. It came in front of his young family with daughters, Scarlett who’ll turn 9 later this month and 4-year-old Autumn, joining him on the podium.
And it was his first since leaving the Penske organization to become co-owner at Roush Fenway Keselowski Racing in 2022.
“There’s a lot of things to be excited about, don’t know which one means the most,” Keselowski said with a smile.
He moved to the front when leaders Chris Buescher and Tyler Reddick hit battling for first with nine laps left and held on to win the Goodyear 400 at Darlington Raceway on Sunday for his first NASCAR win in three years.
