Fanatec, now under the Corsair umbrella, has once again set the bar for sim racing hardware with the unveiling of the ClubSport GT Cockpit. This racing chassis combines innovative design, and unmatched adjustability.
After its initial reveal at gamescom 2024, the cockpit made another appearance at the SimRacing Expo in Dortmund, this time under its new identity as the Fanatec ClubSport GT Cockpit. While the Q4 2024 launch faced delays, fans are now able to order this highly anticipated rig.
The transition of Fanatec under Corsair’s leadership in 2024 marked this moment for the sim racing community. With Corsair’s resources and Fanatec’s expertise, the ClubSport GT Cockpit reflects the synergy of two industry leaders. Unlike standard rigs, this cockpit offers a professional-grade platform built with the demands of serious racers in mind.
