Brad Keselowski will hear a familiar voice in his ear during this weekend’s racing action at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. It’ll be his brother Brian Keselowski, who will be standing in as Keselowski’s spotter for the Crayon 301.
Keselowski’s usual spotter, TJ Majors did not travel with the team due to an illness.
Prior to NASCAR Cup Series practice and qualifying on Saturday, Brian Keselowski shared his view on social media from the spotter’s stand and wished Majors well.
They called in the backup this week. Happy to help when needed. Let’s go get us one and lock into these playoffs! Also get well @Tjmajors pic.twitter.com/hZ87sbFgkX

This is the second race that Brian has spotted for his brother in 2023, as Majors also missed the event at Las Vegas Motor Speedway in the spring.
In addition to serving as a spotter, the elder Keselowski — Brian — has had an extensive career in NASCAR in various roles, including being a driver, and mechanic.
Brian Keselowski made three NASCAR Cup Series starts, including the 2011 Daytona 500. Keselowski utilized drafting help from brother Brad in the Duel qualifying race to work his way into that Daytona 500 in the No. 92 K-Automotive entry.
Brad Keselowski has been knocking on the door of his first NASCAR Cup Series win since moving to RFK Racing, where he now serves as an owner/driver.
Keselowski, 39, has recorded three top-five finishes and seven top-10s through the opening 19 races in the No. 6 Ford Mustang. Keselowski sits firmly inside the NASCAR Cup Series Playoff cutline as he’s 12th in the regular-season championship standings. 16 drivers will make it into the NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs.
