Gain The Advantage Around the Virtual Track With Fanatec's ClubSport F1 Racing System

The new ClubSport F1 Racing System replaces the ClubSport Racing Wheel F1, which is widely used by professional sim racers for training. The new system retains the ClubSport DD+ Wheel Base and introduces the exclusive ClubSport F1 V3 Steering Wheel. The ClubSport DD+ features a high-performance direct-drive motor, delivering up to 18 Nm of holding torque for realistic force feedback, combined with FullForce technology that adds immersive, telemetry-based effects. It is compatible with the full range of Fanatec pedals, shifters, and accessories, providing a premium foundation for competitive and realistic sim racing.

The new steering wheel is based on the ClubSport Formula V3, with an exclusive Formula 1-inspired color scheme and forged carbon finish. Refined through years of competitive sim racing, the wheel is wider than its predecessor, providing a more natural driving position and improved comfort. Alongside the 15 RGB LEDs and 2.7" white OLED display, the ClubSport F1 V3 wheel features two 7-way FunkySwitches, rotary dials, and 12-way switches, all refined to improve tactility and precision in the heat of racing.

The ClubSport F1 Racing System also comes preinstalled with an exclusive version of the Podium Advanced Paddle Module. Its upper and middle paddles feature the same forged carbon fiber finish as the wheel, complemented by anodized black aluminum on the lower analog paddles.

"The ClubSport Racing Wheel F1 has been an important product for Fanatec, particularly through its use at the highest level of competitive sim racing", said Tobias Stelzer, VP & General Manager at Fanatec. "With the ClubSport F1 Racing System, we're bringing further refinements to the wheel, while retaining the direct drive performance that drivers already know from the ClubSport DD+. We're looking forward to putting it in people's hands for the first time at Tokyo Game Show."
