5.11.09 Bell Driver Helio Castroneves Claims 2009 Indianapolis 500 Pole
5.11.09 Bell Driver Helio Castroneves Claims 2009 Indianapolis 500 Pole
After facing an offseason of adversity, 2 time Indy 500 winner Helio Castroneves returned to Indianapolis to claim the 2009 pole with a four lap average speed of 224.8 miles per hour.
Castroneves withdrew his earlier 3rd place qualifying effort and waited for the 15 MPH wind to calm down to attempt a 2nd qualifying effort securing the 3rd Indy 500 pole of his career taking the top spot from teammate Ryan Briscoe.
"This place is magic," said Castroneves, a two-time Indy winner. "It's just amazing. ... We just had to keep working through the weather, working through the day. Ryan and I were really strong. When he (Briscoe) went out there at the end, I was thinking I didn't really want to have to go out [again]."
Less than a month after being acquitted of tax evasion charges, Castroneves returned to his first love – racing. "Many times during the trial I was thinking about it," he said. "I knew what I loved [is] racing, but I realized even more that's my life. And just to be here is a dream come true and I appreciate that every day when I wake up in the morning. I enjoy life. Now I enjoy it even more. But I have to say that what I learned from the trial, probably my mind is much stronger and my skin is a little bit thicker now."
Helio Castronves wears the Bell T6 Interceptor. Other Bell drivers qualifying for the 2009 Indianapolis 500 include 2006 Rookie of the Year Marco Andretti (8th), 2005 Rookie of the Year Danica Patrick (10th), Alex Lloyd (11th) and 2005 Indy 500 Champion Dan Wheldon (18th).

LOEB DECLARES HANS DEVICE SUPPORT – WRECKS SOLIDIFY TESTIMONIAL
LOEB DECLARES HANS DEVICE SUPPORT – WRECKS SOLIDIFY TESTIMONIAL Atlanta, Georgia (April 22, 2009) – World Rally Champion Sebastien Loeb says the HANS Device has been the most significant safety feature introduced in WRC during the past 10 years. Speaking recently, Loeb stated that out of all the safety improvements that have been made in WRC, the HANS Device was his favorite innovation. “The most important safety improvement to me is HANS.” He added, “Nowadays I don’t think about wearing it but if I drive without it I feel strange – I feel loose.”FIA WRC racer, Bernardo Sousa, validated the truth of Loeb’s position when he walked away from a 75 mph (120 kph) crash that destroyed his FIAT Abarth Grande Punto during April’s Rally Portugal.Vojtecha Stajf also paid testament to the safety a HANS Device can provide when he survived a 90+mph (150 kph) crash that shredded his Subaru Impreza WRX STi during this month’s European Rally Cups Race in the Czech Republic. Stajf said that his HANS Device and the rigidity of the roll cage saved him from serious or fatal injury. Video Footage of both wrecks is available via http://www.youtube.com/user/HansDevice. The HANS Device is the best selling head and neck restraint as proven by more than 75,000 racers worldwide and continues to be #1 for performance, #1 for vision and #1 for winners.
