Teodorico Fabi, better known as Teo Fabi (born March 9, 1955) is an Italian former Formula One driver and car racer.

Born in Milan, Fabi participated in 71 Formula 1 grands prix, debuting on January 23, 1982. He achieved 2 podiums, and scored a total of 23 championship points. He took 3 pole positions, but never led a racing lap. He was also runner-up in the 1983 IndyCar championship; during that year, he became the second driver to qualify for the pole position of the Indianapolis 500-Mile Race as a rookie, going on to lead the opening 23 laps before eventually retiring with a broken fuel valve O-ring on lap 44.

He is the elder brother of Corrado Fabi, also a car racing driver; Corrado shared the 1984 Brabham drive with him: since Teo was already committed to a programme in CART racing, Corrado stood in for the races which clashed with his CART commitments.

Teo also had a successful sports car racing career, culminating in winning the 1991 World Sportscar Championship for TWR Jaguar.
