FOX SPORTS FILMS ANNOUNCES "DESTINED TO DRIVE: PATRICK DEMPSEY'S RETURN TO RACING" PREMIERING MARCH 16 ON FS1

Film Follows Golden Globe Nominated Actor Patrick Dempsey's Anticipated Return to Motorsports

Documentary Features Exclusive Interviews with NASCAR Cup Series Champion and FOX NASCAR Analyst Kevin Harvick, Three-Time American

Le Mans Series Champion and Porsche Icon Patrick Long, and Rallycross and Formula Drift Champion Tanner Foust

LOS ANGELES - FOX Sports Films announces today a new documentary DESTINED TO DRIVE: PATRICK DEMPSEY'S RETURN TO RACING featuring Golden Globe nominated actor Patrick Dempsey ("Grey's Anatomy") as he makes his anticipated return to race car driving. Premiering Sunday, March 16, (7:00 PM ET, FS1) immediately following the network's live coverage of the NASCAR Cup Series race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, the film offers an intimate look at Dempsey's comeback to the sport after a nearly decade-long hiatus.

Featuring exclusive interviews with NASCAR Cup Series champion and FOX NASCAR analyst Kevin Harvick, three-time American Le Mans Series champion and Porsche factory driver Patrick Long, and Rallycross and Formula Drift champion Tanner Foust, the one-hour film offers behind-the-scenes access to Dempsey's preparation as he reignites his passion for professional motorsports and competes in the high-stakes Porsche Endurance Challenge.

"Patrick Dempsey's unwavering passion for racing and competitive drive reflects the heart of a true athlete, and FOX Sports is thrilled to partner with NASCAR Studios to spotlight the extraordinary commitment he's put into racing at the highest levels," said Barry Nugent, Vice President, Development and Original Programming, FOX Sports. "We're excited to bring fans along for the ride to reveal the grit, determination and challenges Patrick faced competing in the high-stakes Porsche Endurance Challenge and whether this experience awakens the burning desire within to continue on his quest."

Having previously placed on the podium at the prestigious 24 Hours Le Mans and raced at the Rolex 24 at Daytona, Dempsey stepped away from racing in 2016 to focus on his family and acting career. His work on the 2022 film Ferrari rekindled his excitement for racing and brought back memories of the camaraderie and fellowship that brought drivers together within the sport. With renewed determination and support from Mobil 1 and Porsche's elite team, Dempsey returns to the track to embark on a high-pressure quest to fulfill his racing dreams.

"I am so thankful for this opportunity - not just to be back behind the wheel, but to do it with the right team and my friend, Patrick Long, as my co-driver," Dempsey said.

Through first-person interviews with Dempsey, Harvick, Long and Foust, the documentary provides an all-access view into Dempsey's mindset as a driver and teammate. With Harvick and Long as mentors, viewers gain unique insight into Dempsey's comeback journey and a rare glimpse into a side of Dempsey that few have seen on-screen. Blended with archival footage and thrilling trackside action, the film showcases the intensity, athleticism and psychological resilience required to succeed in motorsports. This film is not just about a podium finish, but the relentless pursuit of personal excellence.

DESTINED TO DRIVE: PATRICK DEMPSEY'S RETURN TO RACING is executive produced by Robert Dalrymple of Robert Dalrymple Productions and Bobby Akin of Mechanical Rabbit Productions. Ariana Rotstein, Carl Hansen, Michael Vayder and Rita O'Dea from FOX Sports serve as producers.

FOX Sports Films is dedicated to presenting captivating global sports documentaries through an unconventional and entertaining lens. Working with FOX Sports' league and conference partners, the brand produces original programming, connecting live sports events to sports culture.
