Fanatec Announces ClubSport F1® Racing System for PlayStation and PC

Toronto-based smartARM is revolutionizing prosthetic control by combining AI vision with intuitive design. Their bionic arm prototype learns to recognize everyday objects and automatically selects appropriate grips—eliminating the need for manual switching between grip patterns that traditionally made simple tasks unnecessarily complex.

Fanatec announced the ClubSport F1® Racing System, an officially licensed Formula 1® direct drive wheel for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and PC. The system will debut publicly at Tokyo Game Show 2026.

The ClubSport F1® Racing System succeeds the ClubSport Racing Wheel F1®, which is widely used by professional sim racers for training. It retains the ClubSport DD+ Wheel Base and introduces the exclusive ClubSport F1® V3 Steering Wheel.

ClubSport DD+ Wheel Base

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 Fanatec's full range of pedals, shifters, and accessories.

ClubSport F1® V3 Steering Wheel

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. It includes 15 RGB LEDs and a 2.7″ white OLED display, along with two 7-way FunkySwitches, rotary dials, and 12-way switches designed for improved tactility and precision.

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

Pricing and Availability

The ClubSport F1® Racing System is currently undergoing final review by Sony Interactive Entertainment. Production is planned to begin following final approval. Pricing and availability will be announced closer to launch.
