Do i need sim racing gloves?

[ancient sapphire]

I bought a moza r5 with f1 wheel mod and i was wondering if i need gloves. I mostly play the f1 games but also play some rally games and casual games like forza. Do any “pro” simracers think i need gloves? If so which ones

The only reason you would need gloves is for alcantara wheels so you dont damage them with the sweat from ur hands. Its mostly down to preference if you use gloves or not
