Today, Porsche and Wright Motorsports announced that Patrick Dempsey will take part in a new endurance programme.
Patrick Dempsey will compete in the Porsche Endurance Challenge North America, a four-race championship for Porsche 911 GT3 Cup and GT4 entrants. The first event will take place on May 26th at Circuit of the Americas.
Here is the schedule:
– May 26: Circuit of the Americas, Austin, Texas.
– August 11: Road America, Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin.
– September 29: Sonoma Raceway, Sonoma, California.
– November 22 – 23: Circuit of the Americas, Austin, Texas.
The four events will be an opportunity for Patrick to reunite with Patrick Long whom he raced with from 2013 to 2015.
An extract from Wright Motorsports’ press release:
“Racing is like an addiction,” said Dempsey. “Once you start, it’s hard to stop. During pre-production on the recent Ferrari film, I got a lot of seat time and fell off the wagon, of sorts. Having an opportunity to get back with John Wright and his team, I realized how much I was missing the culture and really wanted to get back in. I really enjoy the camaraderie.”
Along with their press release, Porsche released photos of Patrick from august and October 2023.
