Welcome back to The Lone Road iRacers Podcast! I'm your host, Guy Robertson, and it's great to be back on the air with you, our dedicated sim racing community. Whether you're grinding out laps on your favourite virtual track or just kicking back after a long day, we’ve got a lot to talk about today.

On this episode, we’re diving deep into a topic that’s been on everyone’s mind lately – the situation over at Fanatec. Fanatec has been a cornerstone of the sim racing world for years, bringing us some of the most cutting-edge hardware out there. From their first high-end racing wheels to the game-changing direct drive technology, they've helped shape the way we all race.

But recently, things haven’t been so smooth. Users have been reporting a slew of issues – from delayed customer support and unreliable product quality to serious shipping and logistics problems. It’s left a lot of us wondering: What’s going on with Fanatec? And what does this mean for the future of their hardware and support?

Today, we’ll break it all down. We’ll look at the risks this situation poses to current and future Fanatec users, discuss what support might look like going forward, and reflect on Fanatec’s history – from their humble beginnings to their rise as a sim racing powerhouse.
We also have the shows competition starting..so liten up to win $25 iRacing dollars.

So buckle up, folks, because we’ve got a lot to cover. This is The Lone Road iRacers Podcast, and today, it’s all about Fanatec. Let’s hit the apex on this one.
