Helio ready for IOWA 2009 race

After 7th on the first practice and 4th on the second practice, Helio will start on the pole this sunday.

Ready for today’s race Helio comments:
“Those points definitely kept me in the front of the pits and now gave me the pole position at Iowa. Unfortunately for the fans, they didn’t get to see the excitement of qualifying. Fortunately, I ended up getting a great situation here with a good starting position. Now that we have a Team Penske front row, we’ll go for the win.”
Don’t miss this sunday, June 21st at 1pm on ABC.

Pronto para a corrida de hoje Helio comenta:
“Os pontos definitivamente me mantiveram na frente nos pits, e agora me deram a pole em Iowa. Infelizmente para os fans, não houve a adrenalina da tomada de tempo. Felizmente, a situação me ajudou bastante me colocando em um ótimo lugar para largar. Agora que o Team Penske tem a frente do grid”

    @3simplythebest: Thanks. I’ve left my mark on that thread with my Helio pics and banners.

    Hey there, Helio! Great race last Sunday, but you did scare us a little! LOL Can’t wait for Richmond this weekend.

    For all of us Helio fans who read and post on indycar.com fan forum, there are some great photos of Helio on two threads. There is a thread dedicated to HELIO FANS just started tonight!

    Helio
    Great race you scared your fans when you and Dixon touched each other. Like you said better than last year and you are still in the championship race in fourth place. It is also nice to see your smiling face. Good luck in Richmond we will be cheering you on.
    Your fan forever
    Cherie

    Helio,
    Good race on Sunday. Even if you didn’t win there was a smile on your face. That’s what we love about you. Scared me when you made contact with Dixon. At least you weren’t out of the race. Hope all goes well for the race this weekend. We’ll be watching. BIG HUG from Rhonda

  11. Paigeat 8:24 pm on June 22nd, 2009

    I definately agree with everyone complimenting on how you handled the media. You’ve definately got a fan in Cousin Vel. She loves you.

  12. Monicaat 5:55 pm on June 22nd, 2009

    You freaked me out during that love tap to Dixon…but all’s well!
    Thank God!
    Always a smile on your face, no matter what. Great job.
    Good Luck on Saturday!

    Well done, Helio, considering that accident early in the race. You did not give up – and that is what matters. Like you said, it was better than last year, Mr. Positive. Looking forward now to Richmond race. Be safe and race to win, as usual Helio. You are a champion!!!! HUGs from one of your many fans.

    Tenho muita vontade de adquirir uma camisa sua. Onde posso encontrar???
    Grande abraço

    É…não foi uma corrida daquelas, mas, também não dá p/ reclamar…se não deu p/ avançar, pelo menos não ficamos p/ trás no campeonato…É preciso encontrar o lado positivo das coisas…
    Richmond está aí!!! Agora é pensar na próxima corrida e que seja melhor!!!

    BOA SEMANA!!! Até mais… :) ;) :)

  16. Pegiat 7:34 am on June 22nd, 2009

    Helio, you held onto your championship position – now onto Richmond. I know that you WILL gain some position there and finish on the podium – why, because your the best! simply the best! My vote is for Helio! it always has been and it will continue to be!

    So much for the Corn in Iowa………

    Great try…heard you say the car wasn’t right set-up..at least no loss in championship points!!

    Cool Video of you and Shawn Johnson…You are the Best Representative for the IRL!!!

    On to RIR…….

    Good try Helio. You are still very much in it. There will be more wins for you I am sure.
    I’m off to have a Fathers day drink with my DAD and talk about the race. He’s the one who
    got me into racing way back in the 80′s!!! Oh yeah, thanks for the facebook message you sent!

  22. Heatherat 5:18 pm on June 21st, 2009

    No worries…good effort today, it just didn’t turn out as a podium finish. On to the next one. xoxo

  23. PenskeRed3at 3:40 pm on June 21st, 2009

    Pretty good race today.Unfortunate incident with Dixon but you are very much still in the hunt for that Championship this year.Still 4th in points.All in all a good day for Team Penske.

    off to watch the end of my hometown race from Silverstone England, F1 ,then a little from Nascar/Infineon.Its still raining here so its a racing afternoon for me.
    What could be better!

    Looking foreward to Richmond..night racing under the lights.Go get ‘em Helio next weekend.

  24. Kellyat 3:29 pm on June 21st, 2009

    Nice save for the championship points. Despite all of the cautions today, it was a pretty exciting race. For a moment it looked like Ryan and Dario might experience what you and… what’s his name?… Oh yeah, Scott had earlier in the race. Those stands looked packed with fans too.

  25. Paigeat 3:07 pm on June 21st, 2009

    Decent race Helio. A top 10 and you’re still in the hunt.

    Keep digging. You can still get yourself a championship if you stay consistant, lead laps, and win more poles and races.

    Cute pics I’ve seen of you and Shawn. Looks like you two had fun hanging out with each other this morning.

    Helinho, senti falta da tradução em pt da página. Você deve imaginar que o número de acessos aumentou bastante desde sua terceira vitória na Indy 500.
    Pena que na corrida de hoje não deu nada além do 7º posto.
    Boa sorte na semana que vem!

  30. PenskeRed3at 11:13 am on June 21st, 2009

    Good luck today in Iowa Helio,we will be cheering as loud as ever to the checkers.I had to persuade a fellow worker to access indycar.com yesterday from his cell phone to find out who won the pole,so i was very excited that Team Penske took the honors…regardless of how it was earnt we’ll take it..right!!Hopefully the rain will co-operate for a great race today.

    Stay safe out there.

  31. 3SIMPLY THE BESTat 11:05 am on June 21st, 2009

    Helio, I left this same message on the most recent blog post before I saw that you had posted a new one on Twitter! Thoughts and prayers are always with you, especially on Race Day. Congratulations again to you and Team Penske for the Iowa Pole win! As always, I wish you…..

    GOOD LUCK AND GODSPEED!
    BE QUICK!
    MOST IMPORTANT, STAY SAFE OUT THERE!

  32. Ashleyat 10:58 am on June 21st, 2009

    So happy for you Helio! This is shaping up to be a winning season for you! Luck is really on your side this year! :’)

    Vai para cima deles Helio!!!! Vc é o cara veio!!! estou torcendo para você te sigo no twitter!!
    abração cara!!! vou assistir a corrida!

  34. Heatherat 10:51 am on June 21st, 2009

    I was bummed that there was no qualifying because I love watching it, but if there’s no qualifying then the 2nd best thing is that you are up front. Good luck to you and Ryan today. AND I thought that was very awesome of you to have Will with you yesterday! xoxo
