'''Supertec''' was a brand of [[Formula One]] [[engine]]s supplied by Dutch company '''Super Performance Competition Engineering BV''',<ref>{{cite web|url=https://inventively.com/search/trademarks/owner/SUPER%20PERFORMANCE%20COMPETITION%20ENGINEERING%20BV|title=Trademarks owned by Super Performance Competition Engineering BV|publisher=Inventively Inc.|accessdate=9 February 2016}}{{Dead link|date=June 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=no }}</ref> managed by [[Flavio Briatore]] and Bruno Michel.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.grandprix.com/ns/ns01585.html|title=Who owns Mecachrome?|date=25 May 1998|work=Grandprix.com|publisher=Inside F1, Inc.|accessdate=10 February 2016}}</ref> Supertec engines were updated [[1997 Formula One season|1997]] [[Renault in Formula One|Renault]] RS9 units, built by [[Mecachrome]].

In May 1998 Super Performance Competition Engineering signed an exclusive distribution agreement with Mecachrome to begin in the [[1999 Formula One season|1999 season]]. The engines were purchased and rebadged as Supertec. Supertecs powered [[Williams Racing|Williams]], [[Benetton Formula|Benetton]] and [[British American Racing|BAR]] in 1999, and Benetton and [[Arrows Grand Prix International|Arrows]] in 2000. The Benetton team rebadged the engines as [[Playlife]].

After the 2000 season, Supertec collapsed due to financial problems and [[Renault Sport F1]] bought back Supertec's assets in 2001.{{Citation needed|date=February 2022}}
