VelocityOne Race review: "There are promising signs, but it needs to overcome some rookie errors"

Turtle Beach VelocityOne Race on a carpet next to its pedals.

With a 20-year history, Turtle Beach will be a familiar name for gamers but the new VelocityOne Race arrives as the brand’s first ever racing wheel. This £629/$649 direct drive wheel lands in a bit of a gap in the market too, splitting the gear-driven classic Logitech G923 and more expensive, advanced options like the MOZA R12 and Logitech G Pro.

Sim racers have never been spoiled for choice when it comes to picking the best racing wheels for PC or consoles. While there are plenty of options at the top end of the market, newcomers have been left with just a couple of brands offering basic wheels and little more to choose from.
