Eugène Martin was a French racing driver who competed in Formula 1 during its inaugural world championship season in 1950. He made two starts for Talbot-Lago, both during that season, without recording a podium finish or scoring championship points. His highest finish was 23rd place, which places him among the field's less competitive entries in those early grands prix.[1]

Martin's career spanned only the 1950 season and consisted solely of his two Formula 1 appearances. His Racer Rating of 3,343 reflects competition in a nascent world championship field that included drivers of highly variable experience and machinery; Talbot-Lago itself proved uncompetitive compared to the dominant Alfa Romeo team of that era. The team fielded 18 drivers across its history, with José Froilán González as its strongest performer, indicating the marque's struggles to produce front-running machinery or identify sustained talent.[2]
