Imagino o quanto deve estar sendo difícil este momento de sua vida, mas saiba que existem muitas pessoas torcendo e sofrendo com voce nesse instante. Acredito que isso tudo será como uma volta mal feita e quase todos os pilotos passaram por voce. E após uma volta difícil voce começa a sua reação até chegar ao primeiro lugar e cruzar a linha de chegada. Tudo ficará pra tráz e esse ano será para sua sua primeira conquista do campeonato, no ano passado voce quase chegou lá, mesmo com tantos indo contra.
Gostaria que soubesse disso, aqui no Brasil, melhor em Ribeirão Preto existe uma família carioca que sempre acreitou na sua inocência e no seu potencial.
Continue assim, voce chegará no pódio que é o seu lugar.
Um grande abraço e boa sorte na temporada, e que a justiça seja feita.
Marcio Neves Fonseca e família

Paige, you are so right – Helio was very cute then but look at him now!!!! This is just part of his special charm which also gets better all the time.

Yes, Paige, Helio is aging well. He must have always had the girls swooning. Thanks for the photo links. Cac, thank you for the info about Helio’s car. I had not heard that, but I did suspect it was a rental. Julianne’s comment threw me off. Helio, I hope you’re well and your case is looking good. Once Holder gets confirmed as U.S. Attorney General, you should ask your attorney to request a review of the legitimacy of the case the previous administration has brought against you. It’s so difficult to believe that friends of the previous court are holding up his confirmation because he said torture is wrong and that water-boarding is torture. America needs our own Nunca Mais! (Hope I spelled that correctly.) It is no wonder that persons with that type of spirit would oppose someone with a spirit as bright as our Lord’s. Ultimately, it is one’s spirit that drives a person or a people to do what they do. And there are only two spirits that can rule over us: the Spirit of God’s righteousness and the spirit that opposes God’s righteousness. This why we pray for God’s name to be sanctified and for His will to be done on earth as it is in heaven. I am continuing to pray that God’s righteousness rises up on behalf of you and your family; may He reward your trust in HIM and your faithfulness to His Word.

Now this are two blasts from the past (the first is from ’98 and the second’s from ’01):

Wasn’t Helio cute back then? Now, he’s gotten a little older (not in spirit) and a lot hotter. He’s one of those men that gets better looking with age for sure.

Hi Helio -
I agree with Kelly. Penske Org should have included you in the Rolex24. Mechanical problems
might have been the cause of being on P6 but you would have uplifted your team’s spirit w/o
fail. Who knows – you might have held the so-called “lucky charm”! and placed higher in the
standings. We congratulate Timo, Romain, and Ryan for trying though.

BTW – isn’t a titanium watch heavy on the arm? I remembered a titanium watch sent to me in the
past, and I refused to wear it ‘cuz it was heavy!

Helio, still enjoying the video and looking forward to the race season. I. too, believe Penske would have finished better in the Rolex 24 if you had been driving. You all had mechanical probs last year and still finished 3rd. I am a firm believer that our positive attitude and spirit makes life a lot simpler and brings true success. I have noticed a question on here about the Gallardo that you have in your garage. If my memory serves me the Lamborghini that you drove on DWTS was leased for you by the production company, that is why it was different than your own Gallardo. Please correct me if I am remembering wrong. How are your family doing? I know there is stress on all of you but please be assured we are praying and sending positive thoughts your way. We believe that you are innocent and because the soon to be new US treasurer is being forgiven his tax problems that is a defense you could use to your advantage. Please send us more videos and personal reassurances that all is well with you and your family. Love ya lots and also your family. Adios

I should clarify that the black car you drove away in was a sports car, not an Acura (in case it’s black). I thought maybe it was a Ferrari and that the clip was perhaps filmed before you scaled up to Lamborghini. Btw, I think Penske Racing would have done better in the Rolex 24 at Daytona this year had you been driving for them. I know they had mechanical problems, but I tend to think your wonderful spirit would have lifted everyone else’s in the garage and there would have been less of a chance to overlook a potential problem with the car. I’m kidding, but only slightly. That kind of stuff just happens every so often in racing. Although, that kind of stuff doesn’t happen too often for a top notch organization like Penske Racing. Ok, maybe I’m just looking for any excuse to praise your beautiful spirit. Can’t wait to see you behind the wheel again.

Helio, I have a question about your Lamborghini. Your bio says it’s a Gallardo, but my son said the one you drove on DWTS was a Murcielago. Julianne said in an interview that you drove your car to the beach with her when you competed on the show. So, which model is your Lamborghini? Also, I saw a video clip of your house showing you driving off in a black car, not a red one.

Helio, you look great. I can’t wait for the 2009 season to start. I hope to see you win races and that problem with the court will go away until after the season ends. Good luck and keep up that great shape. Please get back in #3 and win.

Hi Helio – are you planning to make another video for us? How soon? I am patiently waiting!!!
Still continuing to pray for you and Kati’s legal case – for God to help you win your case for I truly believe in your innocence. Be strong and keep the faith! Looking forward to seeing you race soon.

Suggestion: is there an easier way to access this reply box instead of going thru all the posts? Thank you.

Helio, I’d have to say that seeing you work out was a great treat. The view of Miami wasn’t bad either. Last year we were able to see parts of you physical. It was so funny and cute. Will we get to see that again? Thinking and praying for you and your family daily. I’m so happy that you know we all love you and are behind you 100%. You really shouldn’t be surprised though,with that smile and personality how could we not love and support you? Wish I was in Chicago this weekend. I’m in Ohio and it’s cold here too. Bundle up, we don’t want you getting sick. BIG HUG from Rhonda
