Helio Castroneves
It came down to the diva vs. the driver Tuesday night as “Dancing with the Stars” reached its highly anticipated conclusion, and in the end it was two-time Indianapolis 500 winner Helio Castroneves who hoisted the mirror-ball trophy high in the air.
As he and partner Julianne Hough were voted season five champions, Spice Girl Mel B and partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy shared the finale spotlight, and deservedly so. Mel B and Castroneves have been the most spectacular dancers all season (along with the prematurely jettisoned Sabrina Bryan).

Dancing With the Stars’ Tuesday night finale was full of potential headlines. The big news of the evening, of course, is that Indy 500 champ Helio Castroneves, the little engine that could, did. He won, beating out Spice Girl Melanie Brown. Tom Maurstad, Dallas News.com
