The good deed of the 24 Hours

What could be more normal than that Dr. Sheperd, a character in the series Grey's Anatomy, is committed to helping children with heart defects. Although he is an actor, and not a doctor, Patrick Dempsey has the enormous advantage of turning the world's cameras on the Mécénat Chirurgie Cardiaque association, supported by Team Seattle, which has initiated a Ferrari 430 in LMGT2. And, if he sometimes annoys, as his popularity sometimes eclipses that of talented drivers, the American actor has the right to the respect of motorsport lovers.

Indeed, Dempsey puts himself "in danger", coming to compete in one of the most difficult endurance races in the world, when he could peacefully enjoy his acting fees. Then putting his popularity at the service of an association helping children with heart disease can only be congratulated. So, if Patrick Dempsey's driving skills are sometimes contested, his presence at Le Mans is good news. Because the world of motorsport proves, once again, its openness and its desire to welcome people from all backgrounds.
