Racing

Bhaitech made its racing debut in 2012, contesting the Italian GT Championship using a McLaren 12C GT3.[11] A year later, the team contested the International GT Open and clinched the GTS Teams' and Drivers' titles with Giorgio Pantano.[12] In 2014, BhaiTech competed in the Blancpain Sprint Series which saw them finish seventh in the Cup category of the Teams' Championship.[13]

After a year's sabbatical from motorsports, Bhaitech returned to racing in 2016, competing in the Italian F4 Championship, which saw them claim podium finishes with Richard Verschoor and Lorenzo Colombo.[14] A year later, the team clinched the teams' title and the rookie championship with Leonardo Lorandi while Colombo and Sebastian Fernandez claimed third and fourth in the 2017 championship respectively.[15] In 2018, the team claimed a second rookie championship title with Petr Ptáček, while Lorandi narrowly missed out on the title to Enzo Fittipaldi.[16][17]

In November 2018, it was announced Bhaitech would expand into the Formula Renault Eurocup championship for 2019, reuniting with Ptáček and signing Italian F4 race winner Federico Malvestiti.[18][19][20] In January 2019, Bhaitech made their first driver signings with Umberto Laganella, Mikhail Belov, Nicola Marinangeli and Matteo Nannini joining the outfit for the Italian F4 Championship.[21][22][23][24]

Technology

Bhaitech also specialize in research and development in the automotive and motorsport fields.[25] In 2018, Bhaitech entered into a strategic partnership with Altran Italia.[26]
