Crew chief change for Keselowski as Bullins leaves RFK

Brad Keselowski will finish the NASCAR Cup Series season with a new crew chief after Jeremy Bullins' departure.

RFK Racing has confirmed that Bullins has left the company for a new opportunity. He and Keselowski had been paired together for two seasons on the No. 6 Ford. However, their partnership dates back to when both were at Team Penske, with Bullins guiding Keselowski’s team there in 2020 and 2021.

“We’re excited for Jeremy and his family as he embarks on a new opportunity,” RFK Racing said in a statement. “Jeremy has been a terrific teammate, leader, and vital member of our competition think tank. Not only has he been a trusted voice with the No. 6 team, but he’s also brought great value to the garage in sharing strategic insights and historical perspective as we’ve crafted a shared vision for RFK Racing’s on-track success.

“We wish Jeremy nothing but the best.”

Bullins and Keselowski were the only RFK Racing team to fail to make the Chase. The team is 18th in the championship standings with six top-10 finishes.

Mike Skarbowski is listed as Keselowski's crew chief for this weekend’s event at Kansas Speedway.

Earlier this month, Keselowski was asked if there would be changes to his team in the future and said, “Every year you have some level of change, almost certainly with attrition, people going to different spots in their lives. I don’t think we have anything planned right now, but I would not be surprised if there were some changes.”

Keselowski joined the Cup Series ownership ranks with his partnership with Jack Roush in 2022. He has one win driving for the team, which came in the spring event at Darlington Raceway in 2024.
