Teodorico "Teo" Fabi ( ; born 9 March 1955, Milan, , Lombardy, Italy) is an Italian former racing driver who drove in Formula One in the mid-1980s. Despite scoring three pole positions, he never lead a lap in F1. He is the older brother of Corrado Fabi.
Fabi made his F1 début in with the . Failing to score any points, he left for CART, scoring a rookie pole at the Indianapolis 500 and finishing a close second in the championship.
Despite starting a second Champ Car campaign, Fabi made his way back into F1 in , with the . After scoring nine points (including a podium) and suffering a series of retirements, Fabi left racing to run the family mining business after the death of his father. He rejoined Toleman three races into , and scored a surprise pole for the team at the . However, a slipping clutch saw him fall to eighth, eventually retiring due to the clutch issues. Like his first season at Toleman, he failed to score any points.
, who had previously sponsored Toleman, took over ownership of the team, and retained Fabi, while bringing in Gerhard Berger. Fabi scored two more pole positions. At the , he lined up alongside, Berger beat him off the line; Fabi did manage to overtake Berger, but saw his engine fail seconds afterwards. At the , Fabi suffered issues on the parade lap, and saw pole turn into the back of the grid. He eventually retired with a puncture. He ended the season with just two points.
Staying with the team into , Fabi had his strongest season, scoring twelve points (including a second podium). However, Alessandro Nannini was signed for (to partner Thierry Boutsen, Berger's replacement), and Fabi took out his frustration of a lack of a 1988 driver on Boutsen, deliberately blocking his path despite being a lap down.
Forced out of Formula 1, Fabi returned to Champ Car, without a lot of success, and drove in Le Mans, scoring one runners-up place.
