NASCAR driver Jeff Gordon and Brad Keselowski exchange punches after the AAA Texas 500.
The NASCAR season is getting down to the wire and it is pretty tense. After the AAA Texas 500 ended at Texas Motor Speedway in the Dallas-Forth Worth metroplex, drivers Jeff Gordon and Brad Keselowski got into a brawl.
It is clear Gordon is upset about something Keselowski did and confronted him about what happened. It was probably a daring move from Keselowski who tried to go three-wide of Jeff Gordon and Jimmie Johnson after a restart with two laps to go.
Gordon suffered a flat tire and had to pit, causing him to finish a lap down and in 29th place while Keselowski finished third.

Keselowski seems dismissive and disinterested in anything Gordon has to say and sounds like he is brushing it off, which only seems to infuriate Gordon some more, who is already being held back by someone on Keselowski’s crew. But there was no stopping Gordon, he got around him and grabbed Keselowski by the collar of his suit before they disappear into a mob of people. Here are some brief Vine videos of the fracas.

Afterwards Gordon had harsh words for Keselowski.
Hilarious. RT @_andydavila: “@jaybusbee: Jeff Gordon on Keselowski. Language warning. https://t.co/DKmWmtMige” so tight.

Gordon isn’t alone in his feelings, and ESPN’s Ricky Craven commented on it as well.
You can also see the damage of the brawl on both driver’s faces.
