Zayn's need for speed isn't new. At just 3 years old, he was already making headlines by doing donuts in a Ferrari SF90 Stradale. Now, two years later, he's pushed the limits even further with this latest stunt.
The Lamborghini got a few tweaks to make it work for the pint-sized pilot. Zayn's team fitted a baby seat and extended the throttle and brake pedals so he could reach them. His dad, Kenan Sofuoglu, rode shotgun during the record-breaking run.
After setting the speed record, Zayn didn't just park the car and call it a day. He celebrated by pulling off some impressive donuts, showing off the Lamborghini's 6.5-liter V12 engine.
Zayn's dad knows a thing or two about going fast. Kenan Sofuoglu used to race motorcycles professionally, racking up five world titles in the Supersport World Championship. He also grabbed 43 wins and 84 podium finishes during his career. Kenan tried his hand at Moto2 in 2010 and 2011 but couldn't make the jump to MotoGP.
At just 5 years old, Zayn's already got quite a resume. He's found success in go-karting and motorcycle racing. He can ski and snowboard too. But his real claim to fame? Driving supercars at speeds most adults will never reach and pulling off those jaw-dropping donuts.
To put Zayn's achievement in perspective, Max Verstappen became the youngest driver to compete in Formula 1 at 17 years old back in 2015. Zayn's smashing records at less than a third of that age.
