The Ferrari F1 Wheel Add-On is a detachable racing wheel featuring the “THRUSTMASTER Quick Release” system allowing users to quickly switch from the T500 RS GT wheel to the F1 Ferrari wheel (and conversely). It is a full-size replica of the Formula 1 Ferrari 2011 racing wheel, under official license by Ferrari, for the THRUSTMASTER T500 RS (T500 RS driving simulator sold separately). There are two available game modes: 1.) “Normal” mode, PC and PS3™ compatible (offering 13 action buttons and 3 D-pads); and 2.) “Advanced” mode, PC compatible (offering 25 action buttons and 1 D-pad). Please note that a T500 RS firmware update (available from THRUSTMASTER's website) is required to operate the F1 Ferrari racing wheel.

Customers are mixed about the buttons on the video game controller. Some mention that the buttons are laid out very ergonomically and easy to reach with your thumbs. However, others say that the fake buttons in the middle of the wheel are put off by the stickers. They also say the buttons could be labeled better and have hats that don't turn.

Customers are mixed about the ease of installation. Some mention it looks complicated, but it's very easy to use and install. It's easier to control when playing sim car racing, and more convenient than using the stock wheel. However, others say that it'll be difficult to manage all of the circular dials at first, and frustrating.
"...As far as ease of use and available buttons and knobs, I was surprised to like it more than the Open Wheel Add-On I had previously...." Read more
"...It feels difficult at first, especially if you are switching from a wheel with the buttons closer, but after a couple days of racing, they fall into..." Read more
"...The grips are great. Easy to switch gears with one finger. Many programmable buttons. CONS: Half the buttons are fake...." Read more
"...it's not going to make you faster, but it is more convenient than using the stock wheel (at least for the T300RS)." Read more
Customers have mixed opinions about the shifting of the video game controller. Some mention that the paddles are great for shifting, and the shifters move with the wheel. However, others say that the shifting mechanism has lost its click and sometimes misses shifts.
"...Molded plastic. Yep, they don't even move, so they're just there for looks. But whatever, the rest of it felt okay, especially the grips...." Read more
"...about but true to actual F1 wheels ..... you can actually upshift and downshift with either paddle...." Read more
"...Now the downshift paddle only works some of the time. It will not register shifts about 75% of the race...." Read more
"...The rotary knobs are solid and the paddles are great for shifting. The click is a bit off putting but that’s all personal preference...." Read more

I've got mine mounted on a Thrustmaster T500rs base. I predominantly play F1 and Project CARS on PS4. I Own multiple rims for my T500rs and this is my go-to for most open wheel racing. It works very well with the games I play and transmits the T500's force feedback very nicely. In fact I think it's lighter than all the other Thrustmaster rims so you definitely feel the most FFB with this.
This wheel has enough buttons to give console players all the functionally they can get out of a wheel. There are enough buttons to correspond with all the buttons on PS4/XB1 controllers. PC racers might find that the fake dial switches hinder their experience with this wheel though depending on how many buttons they need to assign.
For casual and even semi serious sim racers, this wheel offers plenty and will do the job nicely for you. Hardcore sim racers might find this wheel to be more of a toy though and opt for something more realistic. But the price jump between this wheel and a more realistic F1 style wheel is quite steep.
All of the dial-type switches that you see in the picture that are in the "hub" part of the wheel are just fakes/decals. Which is a little cheesy and unfortunate, IMO. I'm a real tifosi, so I appreciate the Ferrari logo, but I think this thing would look less like a toy without the fake switches.
The wheel is also, like every other game controller I've ever come across, smaller scale than real life.
All in all, if you have this base and need a controller with lots of buttons, I think this is your only option. It works great for me, though and ironically is one of the less expensive wheels for this base.
I have several wheel s but this one stays in my servo.
You need this wheel
Now the negatives other than the above mentioned cosmetic and cost reduction measures. IMO the stock wheel that came with the Ps4 T300RS feels much better on long races. Less hand strain and easier on the skin. The F1 is very hard rubber and while feels fabulous at first is not as comfortable and because of its specific F1 shape does not have as many way to hold it. As a second wheel for F1 immersion,get it. As your dedicated rim for all cars, the standard shaped are best. Imo the F1 wheel should retail for around $75-$100 for what you get. For $150 TM cut to many cosmetic corners.
As noted in other reviews, the 5 center dials are purely cosmetic. They are actually molded plastic, part of the wheel casing and do not turn at all.
There are PLENTY of other controls that give you exactly what you want, where you want it. For instance, the two thumb wheels are positioned within easy reach to make adjustments to brake balance, fuel mixture, etc., while racing. One of the best purchases I have made.

I will 100% upgrade this in the future, but for anyone just getting started it's an excellent buy.
