Jeff Gordon and Brad Keselowski Teams Brawl After Race, Exchange Insults After

An ugly brawl broke out at Sunday's AAA Texas 500 at Texas Motor Speedway when Jeff Gordon confronted Brad Keselowski after the event.

Gordon apparently took exception to something that he perceived Keselowski did intentionally during the race. Fox Sports' Tom Jensen described what happened between the two drivers on the track: "On the restart, Gordon chose the highline and had contact with Keselowski, which gave him a flat tire and sent him spinning."

That led to a green-white-checkered finish, which helped Jimmie Johnson secure the victory. Keselowski wound up finishing third in the race, whereas Gordon finished all the way back at No. 29.

The incident on the track led to an ugly post-race brawl (Warning: Video may contain NSFW language).

Here's what appeared to help trigger the fight:
