This is the Asetek SimSports Forte Formula Pro sim racing wheel

Shop sim racing equipment

The Asetek SimSports product assault continues, now with a new formula-style entry to the mid-range Forte range.

The Forte Formula Pro is the second Asetek sim racing wheel to feature a built-in screen, following the range-topping Invicta. The same unit appears to be in use here, too – the 60Hz 4,3″ touch screen with an 800×480 resolution.

The screen can be customised using either Asetek’s RaceHub software or SimHub.

The Danish outfit describes the main chassis creation material as “glass fibre reinforced material”. It has a look of carbon fibre to it, but that is not specifically mentioned, unlike its Invicta sibling, which uses forged carbon for the faceplate and is made from a solid piece of CNC-milled aluminium.

On the Asetek website, there is the option to mix and match various handles, shifters and colour kits to suit your taste when ordering.

On the front of the Forte Formula Pro are three aluminium rotary encoders, two ‘kinky’ switches, 10 face buttons, two switches and six thumbwheels.

Another element of differentiation between this Forte and the existing Invicta is that the latter has six analogue paddles around the rear, whereas by default, the newer device has two.

Pricing is €629,41 (excl. VAT) or $649 USD (excl. VAT), and pre-orders begin today, 20th May 2025. The Invicta starts from 1.249.99.

Handle options include ‘regular’, LMP (closed) style, plus ones with added suede or extra large.

Those pre-orders are available for three months from today, and if you use the Traxion referral link, you can use the code EARLYBIRD10% for 10% off when purchased as a wheel and handles, or EARLYBIRD15% for 15% off when shifter and clutch paddles are also added. Discounts end 15th June 2025.
