Brescialat, later Liquigas, was an Italian cycling team in the 1990s and early 2000s. The team was founded in 1994 with Renzo Pesenti at its head. The first split followed in 1995. Sports director Primo Franchini started his own team with co-sponsor Ceramiche Refin and took a number of riders from Brescialat with him.

The following year, former rider and sports director Bruno Leali started for himself with the San Marco Group team. However, his attempt failed and the eight riders who came along had to look for a new team again in May 1996. Two of them found their way back to Brescialat. Belgian Eric Vanderaerden rode for the team for two seasons (1994–1995). In 1995 Vanderaerden finished sixth as a Brescialat rider in Paris-Roubaix, won by the Italian Franco Ballerini.

Brescialat stopped sponsoring after 1998, after which the Italian gas company Liquigas continued the team under its company name until 2001 as Liquigas-Pata. To remember from that period is the overall victory of Davide Rebellin in Tirreno-Adriatico 2001. In 2001 Denis Zanette stood on the podium of the Tour of Flanders for the Liquigas team. Zanette finished third behind the Italian Gianluca Bortolami and the Dutchman Erik Dekker.

In 2003, technical director Fabio Bordonali started a new team, called Tenax.
