DARLINGTON, S.C. - According to an article appearing Saturday in the Palm Beach (Fla.) Post, Brooke Gordon has filed for divorce from Jeff Gordon.
The paper reported that after seven years of marriage, Brooke Gordon cited the union as "irretrievably broken as a result of the husband's marital misconduct," according to court documents filed in Palm Beach County (Fla.) Circuit Court.
Gordon was asked about the report in the garage area at Darlington Raceway on Saturday.
"I hope you guys would respect me at this time," Gordon said to the gathered media. "We'll release something next week, probably Monday.
"I'm not going to comment on that. You can talk to me about Darlington, you can talk to me about sitting on the outside of the front row. I'd love to talk about that."
"Anything we have experienced so far this year has been hard work and not qualifying as well as we should have. My focus has been 100 percent on this race team from the beginning of this season."
Jeff Gordon, 30, and Brooke Gordon, 32, were married in November 1994. They have no children.
