Few five-year-old children know how to tie their shoelaces, let alone drive a supercar. But Zayn Sofoğlu has done just that, and he didn’t stop at the speed limit.
Sofoğlu, the son of Turkish motorcycle racer Kenan Sofoğlu, has put most experienced drivers to shame by winding a Lamborghini Revuelto all the way out to 312km/h. On a closed runway, of course.
Set up with a special booster seat, pedal extenders and motorsports attire, Sofoglu junior steered the 745kW Revuelto all the way past 300km/h, before slowing to celebrate with some expertly executed donuts.

The feat was captured by his parents and posted to Zayn’s Instagram account, which has a whopping 3.5 million followers.
It’s not the first time Zayn has wowed the world with his driving prowess – the young star in the making has previously gone viral launching a Tesla Model S Plaid, piloting a Ferrari SF90 at a racetrack, and excelling in various youth motorsport events.
Zayn’s father, Kenan also lives life in the fast lane, having won five Supersport World Championships before retiring from competition in 2018, since becoming a Turkish politician.
It’s unclear whether Zayn was given a detention for skipping school, but we’re confident he’s earned plenty of respect in the playground.
