Justin Wilson will roll with the Stones for Indy 500

Carb Day, the No. 1 party day of May at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, got off to a rock 'n' roll start.

The Rolling Stones will be represented on the car driven by Justin Wilson during Sunday's running of the Indianapolis 500, Andretti Autosport announced.

Wilson drove his newly decorated ride, sporting black, red and white with a "checkered tongue" Rolling Stones logo, during Carb Day's morning practice. Wilson's No. 25 car is part of the Andretti team.

A native of Sheffield, England, Wilson said he's a longtime fan of the iconic British Invasion band.

"Listening to the Rolling Stones was a Sunday tradition in our house," Wilson said in a statement. "We would wake up, and my dad would have the music on full blast."

Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Ron Wood and Charlie Watts launch the rock band's 2015 tour on Sunday in San Diego. On July 4, the Stones will perform at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

The Carb Day concert at the track is headlined by Jane's Addiction, and that band's vocalist, Perry Farrell, is sticking around for the rest of race weekend.

Ferrell is part of the roster of celebrity Indy 500 attendees announced today. (Jane's Addiction performs at 5:30 p.m. inside Turn 4).

Jordin Sparks will sing "The Star-Spangled Banner" before the race, while 2013 "The Voice" winner Danielle Bradbery will sing "America the Beautiful."

Straight No Chaser will debut as the performer of "Back Home in Indiana." Jim Nabors routinely sang the tune at the track from 1972 to 2014.

Gymnast Nastia Liukin will serve as the race's grand marshal, and NASCAR great Jeff Gordon will drive the pace car.

Actors Patrick Dempsey, Adam Carolla and William Fichtner will attend. The world of sports will be represented by Colts quarterback Andrew Luck, WWE wrestler Cameron and Olympic swimmer Tyler Clary.
