Brad Keselowski celebrated his first RFK victory at Darlington earlier with his daughter. His wife, Paige Keselow, shared a heartwarming video of the incident on social media.
The 2012 Cup Series champion ended a 110-race winless streak after capturing victory at the Goodyear 400. Starting the race on the front row in second place, Keselowski managed to keep himself competitive within the top five mostly. By the end, he was seemingly finishing third with his teammate Chris Buescher and Tyler Reddick in fighting for the lead. However, the latter two made contact with each other with 10 laps to go in the race, which cleared the way for the #6 Ford to clinch the win.

Being one of the owners of his team, this was a historic win from Brad Keselowski. Celebrations down in the pitlane were almost festive. Paige shared a video on her Instagram story where her husband could be seen celebrating the win with his daughter.
She captioned it:
"Ya'll look at her celebrating. I didn't even know where she was at this point. I was standing on the other side of the car. She was so happy."
"Tears, risks, and sleepless nights, all for this moment" - Paige's emotional post on Brad Keselowski's Darlington win
Darlington marked the 40-year-old's 36th career victory in the Cup Series. This was also his first win since Talladega in 2021, at the time, he raced with Team Penske.
Before this win, he finished within the top 5 at four different events this season, being as close as 2nd in Texas and Talladega consecutively. This victory was a leap in his current status in the standings.
Paige Keselowski joined in the celebrations too, as she shared a heartwarming post on X (formerly Twitter). She wrote:
"So proud of you BK! Sweat, tears, risks and sleepless nights all for this moment. You grind it out for your team, your family, your fans. Im honored to have a front row seat. I am so thankful for everyone who made these beautiful memories happen today! #6neverquits."
Keselowski jumped four places in the Cup Series standings and is now in 11th place with 344 (52 stage) points. Although still without a stage win, his performance in Texas, Talladega, and Darlington helped him earn the points. He has also led 46 laps in the season so far.
