Tech 1 Racing is a motorsport team headquartered in Toulouse, established in 2000 by racing driver Simon Abadie alongside his sister Sarah. The outfit has secured significant achievements in competitions such as the World Series by Renault, Eurocup Mégane Trophy, and GP3 Series, highlighted by Álvaro Parente's 2007 triumph in the Formula Renault 3.5 Series.

Between 2016 and 2023, Tech 1 took charge of the racing operations for Panis Racing and its forerunner Panis Barthez Compétition. Their involvement spanned the European Le Mans Series and Asian Le Mans Series within the LMP2 category, as well as participation in the GT World Challenge Europe piloting a Lexus RC F GT3. Furthermore, Tech 1 collaborated with Ultimate—owned by Jean-Baptiste and Matthieu Lahaye—for LMP2 entries in the ELMS (2021) and the FIA World Endurance Championship (2022).

French Formula Renault 2.0

Founded by French driver Simon Abadie in 2000, Tech 1 Racing debuted in the French Formula Renault 2.0 championship that same year, with Abadie finishing second overall. The team repeated this runner-up position in 2003 before withdrawing from the series following the 2005 campaign.

Eurocup Mégane Trophy

Tech 1 entered the Eurocup Mégane Trophy in 2005, concluding the season ninth and tenth respectively with drivers Matthieu Lahaye and Simon Abadie. The following year, Lahaye secured second place in the Drivers' standings while Tech 1 claimed their first of three back-to-back Teams' championships. In 2007, Portuguese racer Pedro Petiz captured the Drivers' title, leading a one-two finish for Tech 1.

World Series by Renault

In 2006, Tech 1 Racing joined the World Series by Renault after acquiring single-seater assets from Saulnier Racing. The team ended twelfth in the Teams' classification, with Ryo Fukuda achieving two fourth-place finishes.

The 2007 season saw Álvaro Parente and Julien Jousse as drivers; Parente won two races en route to securing the Drivers' championship, while Tech 1 topped the Teams' standings ahead of Draco Racing and Carlin Motorsport.

For the 2008 season, Jousse alongside newcomer Charles Pic delivered impressive performances—Jousse finished runner-up overall with six podiums including a victory at Barcelona; Pic claimed wins at Monaco and Le Mans, finishing sixth. This resulted in Tech 1 securing their second consecutive Teams' crown.

In 2010, with Daniel Ricciardo and Brendon Hartley (later replaced by Jean-Éric Vergne) behind the wheel, Tech 1 captured another World Series by Renault title.

The team added one more Teams' championship in 2012 with Jules Bianchi finishing as vice-champion before stepping away from the series three years later.
