Motorsport is set to receive a touch of Hollywood glamour with former Baywatch star Pamela Anderson becoming part owner of a sports car racing team.

According to CNN, Anderson has linked up with the Race Alliance team, which is competing in the inaugural FIA GT Series.

Anderson ventured into motorsport in March 2012 when her and occasional racing driver Markus Fux fronted the Downforce1 European Le Mans teams.

Following the failure of that venture, Fux and Anderson have teamed up with the Race Alliance team for the final three races of the GT Series' 2013 season, the report said.

Competing against Anderson's team will be one led by rally driving legend Sebastian Loeb, who won a record nine World Rally Championships in a row between 2004 and 2012 and now heads the Sebastian Loeb Racing team, the report added.
