Tennis legend Rafael Nadal will become a new team owner in the UIM E1 World Championship, the world's first all-electric raceboat championship.

The 22-time Grand Slam champion will enter his own team for the inaugural season, which is set to get underway later this year.

Nadal's new racing outfit will compete against other teams who have already signed up to participate in the championship, including the Venice Racing Team. 

Nadal joins a growing list of sports personalities to own an E1 team, including current Formula 1 driver Sergio Perez's team affiliated with his native Mexico.
