While
Grey's Anatomy is off the air,
Patrick Dempsey, who plays half of the notorious MerDer couple on the ABC medical drama, was spotted racing at the Rolex Grand-Am Series Brumos Porsche 250 at Daytona International Speedway at Daytona Beach, Florida last week.
The 42-year-old Lewiston, Maine-native is a racing enthusiast, having driven the pace car in the Indianapolis 500. In fact, he co-owns IndyCar Series team Vision Racing. He has been racing in his No. 40 Hyper Sport Mazda RX-8 for years and he loves the escape it gives him from the pressures of the entertainment biz.

“It allows the athletic side of my nature to come out. It's such a nice departure from Los Angeles and Hollywood.

You have to have situational awareness, of what's going on in front of you, what's going on in behind you. There's aggression and you have to be in control.”
The Brumos Porsche 250 is a 250-mile sports car race is unique because it has always been held late at night, and finishes in the early morning hours of the next day. The
Grey's Anatomy star has also raced in the Rolex 24 at Daytona and Tecate SCORE Baja 1000.
Last we checked on the
Grey's season 4 finale, Derek finally got back with Meredith, played by
Ellen Pompeo, when she outlined their future house with candles.
Grey's Anatomy's fifth season will start this fall.
