The Laguna Seca raceway is the debut-scene for Patrick Dempsey this weekend in the American Le Mans Series. The “Grey’s Anatomy” star will be entering the event which is taking place this weekend and will be driving a car with a Lola chassis and competing in the LMP2 class.
This isn’t Dempsey’s first racing experience, having driven a Mazda RX-8 in the Grand-Am GT series. Regarding the car, he said that ”It feels familiar but so much more intense, the braking, the acceleration, cornering and power, it is all on a much more dynamic level than the GT cars I have driven.”

He will be racing on behalf of his own racing team, and this season the team will be entering a series of races in order to test out their car, with a run for the championship expected for the next season of the American Le Mans Series
