Video: Brad Keselowski Done For Day After Car Ignites in Flames Late at Phoenix

Brad Keselowski fire Phoenix — Brad Keselowski’s first season at RFK Racing will come to an end early after his car broke out into a fireball late in Sunday’s NASCAR Cup Series Championship Race at Phoenix.

Brad Keselowski is the latest, in a long line, of Ford drivers to suffer from his Next Gen race car spontaneously combusting in the middle of a NASCAR Cup Series race.

Unfortunately, for Keselowski, his first season as a driver/owner will end on the hook as his car ignited big time in the closing laps of Sunday’s race. Keselowski brought his No. 6 Kohler Generators machine to a stop under caution and was able to climb out.

Here is video of the unfortunate end to Keselowski’s season:

While it didn’t look like Keselowski had a race-winning car on Sunday, the fireball exit ensures that Keselowski’s streak of consecutive seasons with at least one NASCAR Cup Series win will come to an end at 11.
