Leading gaming chair and cockpit manufacturer Playseat has announced it has signed a deal with Formula 1 to release F1-branded products.

The Dutch company has a surprisingly large presence in the racing game and sim racing marketplace thanks to its range of affordable and ergonomic cockpits.

Playseat’s first F1 product is the ‘Formula Intelligence – F1 Edition’, and is set to release on the 16th of April. It looks rather gaudy from early impressions - albeit sturdy - and will likely be the perfect cockpit for entry-level enthusiasts.
