Fanatec ClubSport Steering Wheel Round 1 V2 for Xbox
270 mm round vintage-Formula leather wheel on the ClubSport Universal Hub V2 for Xbox
Description
The Fanatec ClubSport Steering Wheel Round 1 V2 for Xbox bundles the ClubSport Wheel Rim Round 1 with the ClubSport Universal Hub V2 for Xbox. Inspired by a 1980s Formula 1 wheel, the compact 270 mm round aluminum rim is covered in smooth genuine leather and weighs 715 g; its size suits fast movements and the round shape lets you spin it quickly.
Xbox compatibility. The hub's Microsoft chip makes any compatible Fanatec base, plus connected pedals, shifters and handbrakes, work on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. Some features may not be supported on Xbox and depend on game support for the Fanatec SDK.
Paddles and controls. Preinstalled ClubSport Magnetic Paddle Module (3 mm aluminum plates, CNC aluminum cage, neodymium magnets) with small and large plates; no clutch paddles out of the box (upgradable to the Podium Advanced Paddle Module). 16 integrated hub buttons, four adjustable and detachable 3-button clusters, a 7-way FunkySwitch, a Tuning Menu button and a three-digit LED display.
Modularity. Accepts all Fanatec rims and third-party rims with 6 x 70 mm or 3 x 50 mm bolt patterns. DataPort-C supports the Podium Button Module Endurance (sold separately; it does not fit the Round 1 rim).
Compatibility. Requires a Fanatec wheel base (not included): Podium DD1/DD2, ClubSport V2/V2.5, CSL Elite bases, CSL DD and Gran Turismo DD Pro. Works on Xbox, Windows PC and PlayStation with a PlayStation-licensed base. QR2 Wheel-Side included, packaged separately.
Features & highlights
Driving style
Round 1 V2 for Xbox is a 270 mm leather-wrapped aluminium rim, the same diameter as many real classic-car wheels, built for drivers who steer with their hands rather than their thumbs. The compact size makes counter-steering fast in drift and rally sessions, the genuine smooth leather grip works with or without gloves, and the hub supplies 16 buttons, a FunkySwitch and crisp magnetic paddles for Forza Motorsport, Forza Horizon, Assetto Corsa and DiRT Rally. Best for classic cars, drifting and rally; less suited for formula racing and drivers who want a display-heavy GT cockpit wheel.
Build quality
The rim is a polished aluminium piece wrapped in genuine smooth leather at 715 g, light and warm to the touch with no painted plastic pretending to be metal. It mounts to the aluminium ClubSport Universal Hub V2 for Xbox, which carries the Xbox security chip for the whole system, is firmware-updatable and accepts any 6 x 70 mm or 3 x 50 mm bolt-pattern rim. The magnetic paddle module has a CNC-machined aluminium cage with 3 mm anodised plates and neodymium magnets; plastic is limited to the removable button clusters and FunkySwitch.
Software
The Round 1 V2 for Xbox has no driver of its own: firmware, Tuning Menu and force feedback settings run through the Fanatec wheel base it mounts to, configured in the Fanatec App for Windows PC, which also updates the base and the Universal Hub electronics. The Xbox license lives in the wheel, so it is plug-and-play on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One with any compatible Fanatec base, and it also works on PS4 and PS5 when paired with a PlayStation-licensed base; PC works with every Fanatec base. Buttons and encoders reach games through the Fanatec SDK, and SimHub can push custom telemetry to compatible displays.
