Controls

Can I use my controller/wheel with the game?
Absolutely yes

Which controllers/wheels the game supports?
Pretty much all kind. You will find pre-made configuration for the most popular ones (Xbox Controllers, G25, G27, etc.). Incase the game doesn't have a pre-made configuration for your device, setting it up is pretty easy and can be done from the 'Controls' menu.
