Austin Cindric and Trackhouse Racing give Brad Keselowski celebratory beer after Darlington win

Brad Keselowski got some love from Austin Cindric and Trackhouse Racing after earning his first win in 110 races. Keselowski’s racing team, RFK Racing, went to social media to reveal that Cindric and Trackhouse Racing sent him celebratory beer after winning the Goodyear 400 at Darlington Raceway on Sunday.

“Big thanks to [Austin Cindric] and [Trackhouse Racing] for the brewskis,” RFK Racing wrote.

The beers were well-earned for Keselowski who hadn’t won a race since the spring of 2021 when he earned the checkered flag at Talladega. This year, Keselowski came close to earning wins before Darlington, finishing second in Texas and Talladega in April.

“What a heck of a day,” Keselowski said after the race. “It’s Darlington, so whether it’s your first win, your last win, this is a really special track. The history of NASCAR, it’s as tough as it gets, and that battle at the end with my teammate Tyler Reddick, we just laid it all out on the line, it was freaking awesome. I thought it couldn’t get much better than Kansas. It did today. That was awesome. I’m so glad you guys got to see that. That was incredible. Thanks for being here.”

Brad Keselowski Ranks Darlington win

During his press conference, Keselowski was asked when he ranked the Darlington win in his career. Yeah, ranking wins is hard,” he said. “Your first win is always really special, and then there’s these other moments in between. Winning here in ’18 and sweeping the weekend was awesome. That’s one of the best weekends of my life.

“I remember coming home from that and thinking this is as good as it gets. Then you have other wins that mean a little less. I feel guilty about that. I don’t want to take those for granted. But Darlington to me has its own thing about it, its own mystique where it’s always been this really tough driver’s track, and to win here multiple times kind of puts you in a crowd of drivers that I think most of us would recognize as elite.”

Keselowski, 40, has put together a legendary career, earning 36 Cup Series wins and 255 top-10 finishes in 531 races. In 2012, Keselowski won the Cup Series title, and his most notable race victories are the 2018 Southern 500, the 2018 Brickyard 400 and the 2020 Coca-Cola 600. In 2023, Keselowski was named on NASCAR’s 75 Greatest Drivers.
