Montfavet - Hybrid or OP

I found plants at the local Master Gardener Plant sale today. I've grown this in the past and enjoyed it. Was wondering if it is a hybrid.

Appears to be an F1 hybrid; developed at a location in France of the same name. I found this blurb in a report:

"The tomato variety hybrid F1 Montfavet 63-5, susceptible to fusarium wilt, was used in this experiment."

Also found seeds on sale here: Vilmorin
