It would appear that Fanatec ‘s promotions for 2025 have no end in sight. After Black Friday, which saw many peripherals lose value, and just after that the relaunch of the December Deals for the manufacturer’s accessories catalog, it’s now the End of The Year offers that are showing their face, from December 22 at 9 a.m. French time, until December 31.
Of course, this is a “first come, first served” operation, with limited stocks, hand-picked products, and different availability depending on your geographical location. Let’s take a closer look below.
Fanatec’s latest offers
Technically speaking, this is still Fanatec’s December Deals, and the brand is back at it again with promotions on a selection of its catalog. Indeed, the December Deals, which appeared just after Black Friday, concern Fanatec accessories rather than flagship products. These include hubs, wheels and other sim-racing accessories. As far as I’m concerned, the December Deals are complementary offers that enable pilots to finalize their sim-racing setup.
End-of-year offers are a different story. In reality, it’s a Black Friday revisited, with major peripherals seeing their prices lowered, and limited availability around the world.
Please note that the December Deals are still running, and in no way affect the new Fanatec promotions.
For peripherals, Fanatec has chosen to offer promotional products according to market.
Peripherals available worldwide
- ClubSport Handbrake V2
Handbrake ClubSport Handbrake V2 will be exchanged for less during Fanatec’s latest offers. Having missed out on Black Friday discounts, this device has time to redeem itself for the end of the year.
These two entry-level basics are making a comeback as far as promotions are concerned. After the 11% off during Black Friday, I’d say Fanatec will either opt for an identical approach in terms of discounts, or choose a conservative path and offer them probably 8 – 9% cheaper.
- ClubSport DD
The excellent ClubSport DD is also involved in Fanatec’s end-of-year offers, with worldwide availability. However, expect limited stocks to be gone in a flash.
- CSL Elite Porsche Vision GT and WRC steering wheels
To complete a sim-racing setup, there’s nothing like a CSL Elite steering wheel. Choose between the

Why does Fanatec offer 3 consecutive promotions?
Obviously, we won’t know the real intentions behind these three promotional campaigns at Fanatec. My theory is that the brand would like to redeem itself with its fans after some difficult years, notably 2024.
Let’s not forget that for a long time, the manufacturer’s store indicated “out of stock” on several flagship products. And that’s without taking into account the emptiness of its catalog in the face of the competition: where other manufacturers were banking on the mid-range, Fanatec only had entry-level and top-of-the-range DD bases.
Many racers have abandoned Fanatec for the arms of Moza, Simagic or Asetek. These three promotional operations, especially the Black Friday one, are there to tell fans that Fanatec is determined to regain its place as sim-racing market leader.
If you’re planning to take advantage of Fanatec’s latest offers, I suggest you choose the product you want to buy now, and place your order as soon as the reduced prices are applied. Quantities are limited, and stocks will evaporate very quickly.
