Brad Keselowski to depart RFK Racing at end of 2026 season
Brad Keselowski will leave RFK Racing at the end of the 2026 NASCAR Cup season, ending a five-year tenure as a driver and co-owner. The split follows failed contract negotiations, with RFK planning to buy out his ownership stake. Keselowski, 42, insists he is not retiring and intends to continue racing, though options are limited late in the season. RFK remains committed to operating as a three-car team, while Keselowski's departure leaves the No. 6 car and his head of competition role open.
