Brad Keselowski says he needs another month or two before his 2027 NASCAR Cup season plans become clear.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s more opportunities than I think you guys (media) are aware of right now,\u201d Keselowski says. \u201cThere\u2019s a lot of behind-the-scenes chatter and things that happen that doesn\u2019t always make its way to you guys. So, I would say that there\u2019s some really good opportunities.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s always things that come up that surprise you and unique deals. The book of things that could have come together but didn\u2019t come together and you guys never found out is pretty thick.\u201d<\/p>\n

Keselowski and RFK Racing shocked the motorsports community late last month when it was announced the NASCAR champion would leave the organization. Recently, Keselowski said he had a five-year driver contract with RFK Racing that was separate from his minority ownership in the organization. That driver contract expires at the end of the season. Keselowski wanted to continue as a driver while the majority owners wanted him to step out of the car and focus on competition.<\/p>\n

The Michigan native said he would like to drive another three to five years, but that wasn\u2019t mandatory to getting a deal done.
\n\u201cThere\u2019s plenty of opportunities that don\u2019t entail that, that interest me,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Keselowski says he\u2019s not looking for a \u201cone-directional deal.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI wanna do something that works for everybody,\u201d Keselowski said. \u201cThat\u2019s what a good partnership is. If I can make somebody better, that\u2019s part of the fulfillment I get.<\/p>\n

\u201cI tell people that I have the fastest feedback loop in sports because I drive the car and I\u2019m able to provide feedback to the team. There\u2019s no other leader or owner that can really do that, maybe outside of Denny Hamlin, but he doesn\u2019t even drive his own car. I think being really deeply ingrained is a significant advantage for me on the leadership side. That differentiates me from most of the peer group.\u201d<\/p>\n

Keselowski said he wouldn\u2019t be willing to do something that would harm his career or someone else.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe leadership style that I take pride in is just having really clear lines of accountability, authority and autonomy among our management team that enables and empowers them to be successful and grow in their own right,\u201d Keselowski said. \u201cI really enjoy that.\u201d
