If you have even a passing understanding of the sim racing world, you’ll know just how hyper-realistic these video games are becoming. Those behind the latest generation of titles have painstakingly mapped out each microdetail of some of the planet’s most iconic circuits, with spectacular results.

And thanks to Playseat®’s exquisite array of seats to suit racers of all levels, sizes and budgets, it’s never been easier to experience the feeling of hooking up famous corners such as Spa’s Eau Rouge, Silverstone’s Becketts or Suzuka’s 130R. Between the entry-level Playseat® Challenge, and the more advanced Formula Instinct F1® Edition and Formula Intelligence F1® Edition models, which help you achieve that authentic F1® racing position, there’s a lot of fun to be had.

EXPLORE THE RANGE

But would they pass muster with someone who’s experienced the real thing? Enter former Lotus F1® driver and Sky Sports F1® supremo Karun Chandhok to put the three seats through their paces using the tight, twisty turns and steep banking of the storied Zandvoort circuit in the Netherlands.

The Playseat® Challenge

Perfect for beginners or those looking to get up to some casual sim racing hijinks, the Playseat® Challenge is a lightweight, storable seat that’s also stable and sturdy. It fully adjusts according to both the size of the driver and the racing position you want, whether it’s F1®, rally or GT.

Better still, it’s compatible with all steering wheel and pedal set ups, while its unique foldable and globally patented design allows it to be both set up and packed away into the smallest of spaces within just 10 seconds.

The Modufoam™ pads provide exemplary lower back and shoulder support, tailored to each individual.

It’s getting serious now, with the most authentic F1® sensation you could hope to achieve. The seat frame’s unprecedented stability and adjustability allows you to feel totally connected to the track, with maximum force feedback through the wheel as you nail apex after apex.

The Formula Intelligence can fit a wide variety of direct drive steering wheels, and the patented Forcelock™ system provides smooth, infinite wheel and seat adjustment possibilities. High-quality PU material, anodised aluminium parts and flow-formed carbon steel tubing are used for maximum durability, too.

Plus, to really ramp up the realism, the seat comes adorned in an official F1®, while the integrated VESA monitor mount, compatible with most gaming monitors, keeps you totally at the heart of the action.
