The Fanatec Podium Pedals Sport ($599.99) mark the biggest leap in Fanatec braking hardware in nearly a decade. Built from forged and CNC-machined aluminum with a custom 200 kg load cell sensor, they deliver rock-solid muscle-memory braking under heavy leg pressure.

2. What Works Best on Track
Tool-free elastomer swapping makes tuning brake stiffness take less than a minute. Using the medium-firm elastomer stack with 65 kg brake force in the Fanatec Control Panel gave us repeatable trail-braking release into Monza Turn 1 without locking the inside front tire.
Both the throttle and dual-stage clutch run on contactless 16-bit Hall-effect magnetic sensors mounted on dual ball bearings, so there is zero side-to-side pedal wobble.
Fanatec Podium Pedals Sport & Formula
Choose the 3-pedal Podium Pedals Sport ($599.99) or 2-pedal Podium Pedals Formula ($699.99) for pro-level braking consistency.
3. Bottom Line: Who Should Buy It
Because the 200 kg brake can take up to 150 kg at the pedal face, you must bolt these pedals to a sturdy cockpit like the Fanatec ClubSport GT Cockpit ($999.99) rather than setting them on a bedroom floor. For cockpit racers, they are the sharpest pedals Fanatec has ever built.
