June 2, 2012


DOVER, Del. (June 2, 2012) – Brad Keselowski and the No. 2 Miller Lite Dodge Charger team qualified 16th for Sunday’s FedEx 400 benefiting Autism Speaks at Dover International Speedway.

Keselowski toured the one-mile oval in 22.880 seconds, or 157.343 miles per hour. Penske Racing teammate AJ Allmendinger qualified 23rd in the No. 22 Shell/Pennzoil Dodge Charger.

“Our Miller Lite Dodge was OK,” said Keselowski. “We’d like to have about a tenth (of a second) more and that would probably put us near the front. Everybody is really close in this series. We have a strong car. We have to get better in certain areas of the track, but overall I’m pleased with our Miller Lite Dodge. It’s a tough race and you have to be able to have a fast car and survive typical short-track incidents. We’ll see how it goes tomorrow.”

The FedEx 400 benefiting Speaks will air live at 12:30 p.m. ET on the FOX Network on Sunday afternoon. Race coverage will also be broadcast live on the Motor Racing Network and Sirius Satellite Radio Channel 90.
