Stabulum Phaethonti (translated as Phaeton Stable and commonly referred to as Phaeton) is the racing division of Confederate luxury automaker Phaeton S.A. It is the oldest surviving team in Astyrian Formula One, having competed in every championship since the 1960 season. As an F1 constructor, Phaeton has 16 Constructors' Championships, the most for any constructor; the last of which was won in 2021.

History

Stabulum Phaethonti was founded in 1932 by Lucius Geta, who wanted to create a professional race team for competition and provide amateur drivers . Prior to forming his team, he raced for FME and Angelbridge in the 1920s, finding moderate success at races. Geta quickly assembled a group of mechanics and racing drivers to compete in races throughout the Empire of Exponent, eventually staffing up to thirty drivers at its peak.

The team got factory support from Angelbridge in 1933, serving as its de facto race team. Stabulum Phaethonti proved to be very successful throughout the 1930s, dominating grand prix racing events throughout Hesperidesia and Teudallum. Geta managed the careers of several established drivers such as < name >, < name >, and < name >, as well as several rookies.

However, the 2nd Great Astyrian War would prove to be a financially difficult time for the company, as motorsports was suspended throughout the duration of the war. To provide a stream of income to maintain the operations of the team, Geta created the Phaeton brand to sell road cars under the Phaeton name. The brand would go on to become a symbol of performance and luxury throughout Astyria.

With the resumption of grand prix racing throughout Astyria, Phaeton built its first race car, the V12-powered Equus. It raced in several grands prix throughout Astyria, although no Astyrian championship had been established. Phaeton made its first official Astyrian Grand Prix Drivers' Championship debut in 1951 with the Equus 256.
