Brad Keselowski will miss the preseason Cook Out Clash at Bowman Gray Stadium (January 31-February 1) but vows he will be ready for the Daytona 500 after breaking his right femur from a fall getting out of his vehicle Dec. 18 while on a ski trip.
RFK Racing reserve driver Corey LaJoie will replace Keselowski at the Clash on Feb. 1 at Bowman Gray Stadium, and LaJoie will be Keselowski’s standby driver for the start of the season.
"I didn't want to rush back," Keselowski told me Thursday afternoon. "The team and I made the decision together that if all the rehab went absolutely perfect, we'd be ready like, literally, the day of the Clash.
"And that seemed super foolish and didn't give us any time to do any testing on myself or anything like that."

Kyle Larson is the only driver who has qualified for the Cook Out Clash A Main. All other drivers must finish in a top position in their heat race or be first or second in the B Main. If Larson makes the A Main by heat or B Main, the highest positioned driver in 2025 points who did not make the race will be guaranteed a position.
I was a huuuuge Nascar fan.
They went woke.
Do not pay attention to any of it now.
LOL...now that's the most ironic irony of all time.
How do you break your femur getting out of a vehicle?
Why do they always turn to the left in NASCAR?
Broken Femur?
Biggest bone in the body. Break that and you’re in some serious pain.
Not only big time pain, but as a first responder it’s considered a direct “threat to life”.
NOT ON THE ROAD RACES-———
im wondering if he slipped on the ice=- said it was on a skii trip- kinda embarrassing though-
Never heard of Keslowski. I thought the headline was about those fancy dancer shows.
Adult beverages ?
Right?
You’re on a ski trip, but break a FEMUR getting out of a vehicle?
“Why do they always turn to the left in NASCAR?”
Obviously you are ignorant on NASCAR races.
They do in Track too.
Early motorsport years, the midgets, “supermodifieds” (sprint cars as known today), saloons (NASCAR, et al), anything on the AAA Championship sanctioned were raced on off-season horse and harness tracks, especially after the 1903 ban on open road races following the fatal crashes at Paris-Madrid.
The 1905 AAA Championship (first motor racing championship from a multiple-race series) for the then-new technology was run on numerous horse racing tracks. After Gov. Cuomo demolished the New York State Fairgrounds, only one track from 1905 still stands — Empire City Raceway, now a racino for harness racing in Yonkers. That’s why oval racing turns left and why it appeals — its roots date to the 1905 AAA Championship on dirt tracks only and Yonkers.
Historically, in motorcycle racing, horse tracks formed the core of the Miles in Flat Track — currently the two harness tracks in Springfield and DuQuoin, IL, but historically, they’ve raced on numerous horse miles — Turf Paradise, Red Mile, Meadowlands, Cal Expo (Sacramento), Sonoma County, and other great tracks.
One of the Midwest’s great racing families. Brothers Bob and Ron won numerous ARCA and USAC Stock Car races, Bob won one Truck race at Richmond and Ron winning a 500-mile Pocono USAC Stock Car Division event. Brad is Bob’s son. They are from Rochester Hills, Michigan.
