'It's giving me a fascinating opportunity to show my full potential.

It could be a one-off chance so I simply want to do my best.'
Le Mans will see 60 racing cars take two trips around the clock at the Circuit des 24 Heures du Mans on Saturday and Sunday in the endurance race, which first began in 1923.
Michael began his motor racing career when he met actor Patrick Dempsey on a long-haul flight from London to Los Angeles a few years ago.
After Michael shared his passion for the sport, the owner of Dempsey Racing and former Le Mans driver contacted the heads of Porsche Motorsport Marketing and kickstarted the actor's racing career. 





Goal: Michael has been intensely preparing for the race and has been training for three years as he described it as his 'dream' to compete in the 24 Hours of Le Mans













Michael visited Le Mans in 2018 and quickly took his first steps towards becoming a racing driver at the Porsche Driving Experience, the entry-level programme for motorsport enthusiasts.
The Macbeth actor went on to complete the Porsche Racing Experience, did a season in the Porsche Sports Cup Deutschland and had guest appearances in the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup at the wheel of the 911 GT3 Cup.
During his racing career, Michael has competed in a total of 36 races - including the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup - where he has secured one win and reached the podium seven times. 
He also launched a weekly YouTube series Road to Le Mans, which he began in 2019 and documented his epic journey to reach the French car race.





Start: He began his motor racing career when he met actor Patrick Dempsey on a flight from London to Los Angeles a few years ago

One episode in November 2019 saw him compete in the Oschersleben race, with Michael reflecting on the challenges of the competition. 
He explained: 'I was in position 3, so I needed to get past car number 3 as soon as I could.
'Managed to do that, my stint went on, I spent most of the time defending and that became very stressful.'
Reliving the moment he made a speeding error, he continued: 'I came in because of that exhaustion, got a little flustered hit the wrong button, broke the speed limit.'
As well as his motor racing career, Michael also reached a milestone in his personal life as he welcomed his first child with Alicia Vikander last year.
