It looks like even Brad Keselowski has no filter at all. Last weekend at the Talladega Superspeedway, Erik Jones was caught up in a bad wreck, and he came away worse off than others. As a result, he was forced to sit out for the following week’s race at the Dover International Speedway. It also looks like he may be out for a little while longer, so Legacy Motor Club has recruited Corey Heim as a substitute.

Recently, Brad Keselowski commented on Erik Jones sitting out and Heim racing instead. What was probably a little painful for Jones, was that the Dover paint scheme was a tribute to the legendary Richard Petty. However, despite finishing P16 the last time he raced in Dover, the driver was expecting a better run this time.

Incidentally, Jones and Heim are piloting the iconic #43 car, a number that Petty was well-recognized for. The stars further aligned because Petty is also a part-owner of Legacy Motor Club.

What did Brad Keselowski say about Heim subbing for Jones?

As it happened, Keselowski’s comments were a little Not Safe for Work (NSFW). He quipped, “I’ve never seen somebody sleep with my wife, but I imagine that’d be what it’s like”. The analogy was clear: it was odd to see another driver race in your own car. However, Brad Keselowski could have worded the situation better or changed his analogy. One thing is for sure: he is definitely going to have an awkward conversation with his wife after this.

Of course, many saw the funny side of the incident and poked fun at Brad Keselowski. The general consensus was that everyone was in disbelief that the #6 driver had the guts to say that on live TV. The good news may be that the analogy could simply go over the heads of any children or more innocent-minded people. However, everyone else who would have been listening would probably turn a lovely shade of red at the implications.

How did NASCAR fans react to the comments?

One wide-eyed fan commented, “Well then…thats a comparsion”. Meanwhile, another fan teased, “No chairs in brads bedroom confirmed”.

Other responses read, “This is why I love Brad” and “Priorities right!! Lmao”.

Few even commented on how Keselowski’s wife shared his sense of humour, saying, “Likely , the least impressed with this analogy is Brad’s wife“.

However, his NSFW comments also earned him a few fans. One person noted, “Off the track Brad Keslowski might be one of my favorite drivers”. Another said, “He’s heard about other drivers watching someone drive their car, though”.

Finally, one new Brad Keselowski fan stated, “This is why Brad is the leader of the Ford stable as far as I’m concerned, he says the most blunt yet true shit”.
