You need to learn how to f***ing count.

I was going good but then I slipped in my own drool.
Helio Castroneves on the return to road courses
Whatever you heard, somebody made it up. For the first two days, he talked nonsense because he had a concussion. It doesn't matter what he was saying. He doesn't even remember it.
