(Motorsport-Total.com) - Lotus und die US-Amerikanische Rockband "LinkinPark" veröffentlichen eine gemeinsame iPad-App. Das kostenlose Programm mit dem Titel "Linkin Park GP" ist ab Donnerstag, 24. Mai, im iTunes-Store erhältlich und ist laut Mitteilung von Lotus "eine fahrerische, grafische und musikalische Erfahrung."
Grund für die ungewöhnliche Kooperation ist der 500. Grand Prix in der Geschichte des Teams, der mit dem Lied "Burn it Down", der akutellen Single von Linkin Park gefeiert wird. Darüber hinaus startet die Band am kommenden Wochenende ihre Tour durch Europa und die USA.

ZitatKimi keen on WRC comeback
Kimi Raikkonen says the FIA World Rally Championship powered by Nokia remains unfinished business and that he'd relish the chance to take part on Neste Oil Rally Finland in August if his contract with the Lotus Formula One team allowed it.
Raikkonen returned to Formula One for the 2012 season following a two-year stint in the WRC where he scored a best finish of fifth in Turkey in 2010 and recorded a fastest stage time in Germany in the same season.
In an interview with Motorsport News in the United Kingdom today, Raikkonen said: “I knew [rallying] was tough as I’d done some before but it’s different at the highest level. I knew it wouldn’t be easy. Of course, I wanted to do better. But I’m not finished. I want to go back, whether for my career or after I don’t know.
“I’d like to do Rally Finland this season as it fits with the calendar but you’ll have to ask the team if it fits in my contract. Formula One and rallying are two completely different sports. In rallying everything is different. Okay, you have the pace notes but you don’t know for sure what’s around the next corner.”
Raikkonen’s former WRC rivals will be in action on the Acropolis Rally in Greece this week (24-27 May).
Dachte ich mir doch, dass Dir das gefallen würde.... Ich glaube aber auch nicht, das sie ihn lassen. Stellt Euch vor Kamikaze-Kimi würde sich mal wieder was brechen! Nach den Erfahrungen mit Robert werden sie ihn nicht lassen...

Das hat er ja von Anfang an gesagt, also dass er gerne ab und zu Ralley fahren würde, dass Lotus das aber wohl nicht zulässt, was man auch verstehen kann wenn man an Kubica denkt. Ich glaube also nicht daran, dass Lotus die Meinung ändert und ihn fahren lässt.
Also ich als Lotus würde unseren Kamikaze nicht fahren lassen
Q: Do you have any special rituals when the helmet is concerned like many other drivers have? KR: I wipe it, so that I can see well
Das war meine Frage, die Mr. Kulta Kimi gestellt hat: Ingrid:
Are you still in contact with Kaj? Are you planning to do Rally Finland?
Answer:
Yes, I keep in touch. He’s now rallying with Pajunen. No, I’m not planning Rally Finland.
Hmm ich hoffe, dass er nicht fahren darf. Ich will ihn nämlich live in Spa siegen sehen, und bei seinem Glück tut er sich sicher wieder weh - ich sag nur
Lotus driver Kimi Raikkonen is hoping to return to the World Rally Championship for his home round of the series, Rally Finland in August.
Raikkonen departed the WRC last season, having spent two years driving a factory-specification Citroen.
The Jyvaskyla-based Rally Finland is the event Raikkonen has most experience, having competed there for the last three years. His best result was ninth last time out.
Raikkonen could compete in Finland, as the event runs the week after the Hungarian GP at the start of the Formula 1 season’s summer break.
Lotus is, however, likely to be understandably reluctant to let Raikkonen compete in Finland, having lost its star driver Robert Kubica when he crashed a Skoda Fabia S2000 ahead of the start of the 2011 season.
Raikkonen said: “I’d like to do Rally Finland this season as it fits with the calendar but you’ll have to ask the team if it fits in my contract.”
Raikkonen, whose best WRC result was a fifth place in Turkey in 2010, admitted the WRC was tougher than he expected ‘ but said he would be back.
He added: “I knew [rallying] was tough as I’d done some before but it’s different at the highest level. I knew it wouldn’t be easy. Of course, I wanted to do better. But I’m not finished. I want to go back, whether for my career or after I don’t know.

We Built This City on Rock & Roll! – Lotus F1 Team Link Up With Linkin Park
Lotus F1 Team and Linkin Park combine to create ‘Linkin Park GP’ – a unique digital experience due to go live on Thursday of the Monaco Grand Prix! We Built This City on Rock & Roll! – Lotus F1 Team Link Up With Linkin Park
The 2012 Monaco Grand Prix sees driving, graphical and musical experience ‘Linkin Park GP’ launched as a free iTunes download available from Thursday 24th May; coinciding with the band’s tour of Europe and the USA which starts on the following day in Portugal. Emanating from a unique creative collaboration between Lotus F1 Team and Linkin Park, ‘Linkin Park GP’ allows iPad users to drive a Lotus F1 Team E20 and interact with a 360° environment to create an original remix of Linkin Park’s latest worldwide hit single, ‘Burn It Down’.
Designed by Clicmobile, the app utilises an interactive user remix experience for the first time on iPad – with multiple audio tracks and live effects synchronised and mixed in real time in response to user actions on the accelerometer sensors and multitouch screen of the device. As a result, users are put closer to the music by zooming into sections of the song – even into individual instruments – to create a unique listening experience that is nonetheless recognizable as the hit song from the album.
Mike Shinoda, Co-lead Vocalist, Linkin Park “We are really happy to be able to collaborate with Lotus F1 Team to create a first-of-its-kind game that combines the thrill of Formula 1 with our song. Our fans love Formula 1 and this is a very fun way for them to be able to interact with our music”
In order to celebrate the launch of this app, both E20s will feature a Linkin Park logo in Monaco this weekend. For a sneak preview of ‘Linkin Park GP’, take a look at the teaser trailer below:
Once more illustrating Lotus F1 Team’s innovative approach to promotion and communications, the app will be promoted to Linkin Park’s fans – including 42 million on Facebook – and Lotus F1 Team’s growing social networks. It will also benefit from Warner Bros Records’ and Universal Music Publishing’s support worldwide.
The band is currently gearing up to release their highly anticipated fifth studio album LIVING THINGS which will be available on June 20th in Japan, on June 22nd in Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Australia and New Zealand, the rest of Europe and Asia on June 25th, and the US and Canada on June 26th.
LIVING THINGS has the spirit and energy the band is best known for. It continues the Linkin Park tradition of melding various styles of music into a cutting-edge signature sound. It’s built upon all previous Linkin Park albums, while still pushing their sound into new territory. It’s spirited, energetic, daring and unafraid to hybridize the past, present and future.
According to Rolling Stone magazine; “The material is the bands most powerful since its megahit 2000 debut.”
