So, let's get back to the features appraising. The FSR2 is bristling with 15 customisable buttons, 5 rotary encoders, 2 thumb encoders, and dual clutch paddles. Honestly, Moza is practically daring you to not find your ideal setup here, and everything felt seriously premium to me. Each switch had a satisfying click, and nothing felt cheap or mushy.
The magnetic carbon paddle shifters deserve a shoutout too. They’re crisp, swift, and quiet. I also liked that I could tweak the dual clutch paddles to work either independently or as a single axis. Super handy for rally mods or nailing pit lane launches.
Mounting the wheel is a breeze thanks to Moza’s ball lock quick release. I just clicked the FSR2 onto my R12 base and was off to the races in seconds. That said, do note that this wheel only works with Moza’s R9, R12, R16, and R21 bases. If you’re rolling with Fanatec or Logitech gear, you’ll need to make a bigger ecosystem jump. Also note that some of my photos include Moza's sold separately multi-function stalks (an oddity for F1 racing, but I'll take all the extra functionality I can get, even if it may look weird to purists).
Moza FSR2 – Design and Features
From the moment I unboxed it, the FSR2 felt like a prop snatched from an F1 garage. This 280mm, open top formula rim is made from CNC machined aluminium and real carbon fibre. It’s featherlight but still rock solid. I couldn’t help but start humming the Drive to Survive theme while holding it.
I really liked the wraparound rubberised grips. They’re nicely textured to fend off slippage during long stints. Even when I got a little sweaty mid-race, I never lost my grip. Ergonomically, it’s all top tier. Every switch, button, and rotary dial sits exactly where my fingers expected them to be. Real-time adjustments felt effortless.
The pièce de résistance for me was that integrated 4.3 inch full colour dash. It boasts 800x480 resolution, a 60Hz refresh rate, and enough telemetry readouts to satisfy a NASA flight controller. Using Moza’s Race Display software, I could flick through multiple UI layouts to get whatever info I needed, like speedo, RPM, tyre temps, lap deltas, fuel load, the lot.
Moza FSR2 – Performance
Once I got the FSR2 click-locked onto my R12, it instantly became an extension of my arms. Every kerb, gear clunk, and understeer wiggle came through with razor-sharp fidelity. Whether I was threading the needle at Eau Rouge or countersteering a tail-happy monster in iRacing, I felt locked in and totally in control.
The layout of the controls made in-race tweaks a dream. Need a brake bias nudge or a quick diff adjustment? No sweat. I could do it without even glancing down, thanks to the tactile feedback and intuitive spacing of the controls.
Although this is clearly built with Formula sim heads in mind, think F1 24, rFactor 2, and iRacing, I tried it in a few GT and rally-style games as well, and it still held up. The feedback loop was so dialled in, I could feel tyre grip fade in real time. That kind of nuance is what separates the budget wheels from the premium stuff.
Now, that screen. I was honestly surprised by how helpful and readable it was, even in my peripheral vision. I customised it to show lap timing and tyre wear most of the time, but it’s flexible enough to adapt to whatever race info you’re chasing. Moza’s Pithouse software made fine-tuning a breeze.
My only real gripe? The price tag. This isn’t a casual add-on. You’re buying a luxury racing component here. But if you’re even halfway serious about your sim setup, I reckon the FSR2 is a rock-solid investment that’ll scale with you as your rig grows more sophisticated.
After clocking a solid amount of laps with this beast, I came away impressed. Moza’s FSR2 is a stylish, high-end piece of kit built for racers who want every adjustment dialled in and every data point on screen. It’s not cheap, but I think the quality justifies the spend. If you’re the sort who gets giddy over telemetry overlays and obsessing over tyre wear, this bad boy belongs in your rig.
