Axalta 400: Brad Keselowski drags hose, trips pit crew (Photo)
As Brad Keselowski left the pits, he took some of Martin Truex Jr’s crew and their equipment with him.
Brad Keselowski has had some bad luck with dragging equipment out of the pits this season. A couple of weeks ago, the ethanol canister got loose in his car as he exited and he was penalized as a result.
This week, he took some of Martin Truex Jr’s equipment with him when he left.
As he left his pit stall, Keselowski dragged the air hose of the No. 78 car’s crew with him. With the long cable attached to the piece of equipment, he ended up knocking over Truex Jr’s crew as well as they got upended by the wrench.
It was truly a sight to behold.
While dragging his own equipment was a penalty a few weeks ago, the fact that it was not his equipment this week did not result in a penalty for Keselowski. Fortunately for Truex Jr., he was not penalized as a result either.
Keselowski has been at the heart of some events lately when he comes in for a pit stop. At this point, no piece of equipment is safe when he enters, and apparently no crew members are either.
The crew members are okay and nobody was hurt as a result. Either way, everyone is going to be extra careful whenever Keselowski is headed their direction or asks to use any of their equipment — whether on the race track or not.
