MIAMI (TICKER) —Helio Castroneves, a two-time winner of the Indianapolis 500, was indicted Thursday on tax-evasion charges.
The famed Brazilian driver was indicted along with a relative and an Ohio attorney, authorities said. Castroneves, who owns a mansion in Coral Gables, is charged with failing to pay more than $5 million in taxes over a four-year period.
Castroneves’ sister, Kali, and his lawyer, Alan Miller are accused of assisting him in the alleged tax-evasion scheme. The three defendants are expected to surrender to authorities and appear in court Friday morning.
The 33-year-old Team Penske driver won the Indianapolis 500 in 2001 and 2002, becoming the fifth man to achieve the feat in consecutive years. He finished second to teammate and countryman Gil de Ferran in 2003.
Castroneves gained American fame last year after winning the fifth season of ABC’s reality television show “Dancing with the Stars” with partner Julianne Hough.

One of the "few" foriegnors I like racing at Indy. Maybe they could shave 5 mil from that $700,000,000,000 bailout money special interest and lobbyists MANAGED TO STEAL FROM US AND PAY OFF THEIR CEOS AS WELL AS GIVE KICKBACKS TO THE POLITICIANS WHO MADE IT HAPPEN. PUT THEIR ASSES IN COURT.

Why in the hell do you people think he was practicing climbing fences every time he won a race, for his health? He knew with all the money he was socking away off shore he would eventually have to scale a fence to either get out of the joint or escape and go back home.
My wife told me if I went to one more Sprint Car race
she would leave me.................I'm sure gonna miss
that ol' gal.
