Fanatec Bentley Wheel GT3

Following the introduction of the super realistic Fanatec BMW M4 GT3 steering wheel, the revolutionary CSL pedals, the new CSL DD (Direct Drive) and the Limited Edition ClubSport F1 2021 wheel Fanatec already announced that more was coming. And that is incredulous! The leading manufacturer of sim racing hardware has just announced yet another new product: the Fanatec Bentley GT3 wheel.

Fanatec brings Pikes Peak to your living room

The Fanatec Bentley Wheel GT3 was developed in collaboration with Bentley Motors Limited for use with the real Continental GT3 Pikes Peak race car. So a very authentic specimen! This wheel was built to handle the world's most infamous and dangerous hill climb course. So this steering wheel demands extraordinary performance. Both on the real and virtual track.

The most advanced racing wheel ever made

This is the most advanced wheel we have ever made, explains Thomas Jackermeier, CEO of Fanatec. Fusing the real and virtual worlds together, the Fanatec Bentley GT3 racing wheel features a 310 mm diameter rim with Alcantara grips built on a magnesium core and a 5 mm thick carbon fibre front plate with a unique green weave. The centrepiece of the wheel is a circular 3.4-inch digital display, which provides live vehicle telemetry and performance information.

You will also find two seven-way FunkySwitch directional sticks, a pair of aluminium thumbwheels and four magnetic paddles - two for swapping and two assignable tools. The design is based on the Continental GT car. Integrated RevLEDs and programmable FlagLEDs are also included.
