NASCAR: The 10 Worst Pit Road Accidents
No. 7 – Brad Keselowski Takes Out His Own
Sometimes a driver is the one responsible for taking out their own crew mates.
When the pit crew jumps over the wall they are anticipating that the driver is going to stop where they are supposed to stop. While that’s great in theory, every now and again that doesn’t happen. Sometimes a driver will miss their marks and overshoot their box, the result can be seen above with Brad Keselowski and the No. 2 team.
The scariest part of this isn’t even the guy that went onto the hood. In his case the tire took the brunt of the hit whereas the jack-carrier on the side of the car was flipped onto his back and had the jack fall on him.
All in all, it was a rough stop.
