Fanatec CSL Steering Wheel GT3
The CSL Steering Wheel GT3 is an enthusiast-tier GT wheel with a 300 mm rim, dual-clutch paddles, an OLED display, overmoulded grips, and QR2, and it's Xbox-licensed. The combination of dual clutch and a telemetry screen at a mid-tier price makes it a strong value, and it's a natural upgrade path from the McLaren GT3 V2. Drivers who want formula-style ergonomics should choose a flat-bottom rim instead.
