hopefully Fanatec learned from Thrustmaster's mistake and don't do a "Ferrari F1 wheel" on this one.
I have the Ferrari F1 wheel (I actually have 2, the second of which I want to mod but haven't had the time to do so yet) and it has 27 programmable buttons/functions... It's more than enough :)
But if you mean the fake switches on the main face then yes, I agree, hence I want to do a bit of DIY on it to make them real if possible.
