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 and Brooke Gordon, both 30, were married in November 1994. They have no children.

Report: Jeff Gordon's wife files for divorce

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) -- Jeff Gordon's wife has filed for divorce after seven years of marriage to the four-time Winston Cup champion, The Palm Beach Post reported Saturday.
Brooke Gordon said the marriage is "irretrievably broken" in court papers filed Friday, the newspaper said. It did not specify the problems.
She and her husband are considered the highest-profile couple in NASCAR, appearing together in commercials and magazine articles.
Jeff Gordon, in Darlington, S.C., for the Carolina Dodge Dealers 400, would not elaborate on the report Saturday.
"I hope you guys can respect me at this time," he said. "We're going to say something next week about it."
Telephone messages by The Associated Press to Gordon's lawyer, Georgia Newman, were not immediately returned Saturday. No one answered at the Palm Beach County Clerk of Courts office.
Brooke Gordon is seeking exclusive use of the couple's oceanfront home, valued at $9 million, as well as alimony, two cars and periodic use of their boats and an airplane, the newspaper said.
Gordon's 32-year-old wife also wants her husband to continue to pay the salaries of their housekeepers, maintenance workers and chef.
Jennifer Brooke Sealey was a Miss Winston when she met Gordon in victory lane after a race at Daytona International Speedway. They married Nov. 26, 1994, and have no children.
Jeff Gordon is in his 10th full season in Winston Cup. The 30-year-old driver has won four championships, 58 races and more than $45 million in prize money.
