It"s not every day that a group of musicians get the chance to design a racecar. Alas, today is one of those days.Two months on from Mercedes-AMG"s 1-2-3-4 finish at the N rburgring 24 Hours, rock band Linkin Park have been given the opportunity to design the livery of the GT3 that will be run by AMG-Team Black Falcon at the upcoming 24-hour race at Spa.We doubt the Californian sextet were completely unaided when they came up with the livery, but whatever the arrangement, we reckon they"ve produced a real winner of a paintjob.Sporting the band"s name on the spoiler, the car features red and black highlights on a largely silver base, with the odd lightning bolt thrown in for effect. Because why the hell not?"Even though there probably is no way to top the result from the N rburgring 24-hour race, we will do our utmost to put in a maximum performance again at Spa and to challenge for victory," said Maro Engel, who will pilot the #00 alongside teammates Yelmer Buurman and Bernd Schneider. "It certainly will be anything but a walk in the park, because the world"s strongest teams and the best GT3 drivers will be on the grid at Spa."
