Podium DD (25 Nm)
Absolute Fidelity.

Power is Easy. Control is Crafted.
FullForce: Driving the Detail.
Mechanical Honesty.

Designed for QR2.
Composed at the Limit.
Designed and engineered in Germany, Podium DD represents the most advanced expression of Fanatec direct drive technology. The proven second-generation architecture and robust electronics make it suitable for professional drivers, training environments, and commercial installations.

Crafted in Metal.
The all-aluminum housing features redesigned front and rear covers that enhance rigidity and thermal performance. Diamond-cut Fanatec logos provide a precise finishing touch, reflecting the performance within.

Maximize Your FOV.
An included 10 cm shaft extension allows your display to sit between the Base and Wheel, positioned lower and closer to the driver. This expands your field of view and creates a striking mixed reality effect, where physical hardware and virtual cockpit begin to merge.
