Former NASCAR driver Brian Vickers was named in several documents in the latest Epstein filings that came down Friday.

Vickers’ ex-wife, Sarah Kellen, was named as an unindicted co-conspirator in Epstein’s 2008 non-prosecution agreement and was later described as “guilty” by a federal judge at Ghislaine Maxwell’s sentencing in 2022.

The worst impact of Vickers’ apparent relationship with Epstein appears to be an email from Vickers to Epstein sent on Feb. 14, 2019.

In an email with the subject line, “Thought you’d like this,” Vickers sent an email attachment with the message, “Happy Valentines Buddy” and a smiley face emoji. Epstein was found dead in his prison cell six months later.

Vickers is also shown to have sent an email to Epstein on March 24, 2012, with the subject line, “Male Fairy Tail.” The content of the email is sexually explicit.

Some emails include discussions about potential funding. But one from a retweeted mailer on Epstein includes apparent concern from Michael Waltrip and another business partner from bad news about Epstein.

Representatives for Vickers and NASCAR did not respond to requests for comment.

Steve Tisch, part owner of the New York Giants, is listed in the files and appears to have discussed women with Epstein.

“We had a short association where we exchanged emails about old women, and, in addition, we talked about movies, philanthropy and investments. I did not accept him in any of his invitations and I did not go to his island. As we all know now, he was a bad person and someone I deeply regret associating with,” Tisch said in a statement released Friday night.

On Friday the Justice Department released more than 3 million related documents Epstein’s investigation includes email exchanges from April 2013 and June 2013 between Tisch and a convicted sex offender.

Epstein was found dead in a Manhattan jail cell Aug. 10, 2019. His death was later ruled a suicide.
