Zayn Sofuoglu, son of the legendary Turkish 5-time motorcycling champion Kenan Sofuoglu, drives the $550,000 (approx Rs 4.5 Crore) Ferrari SF90 Stradale like a boss! Yes, you read that right. The 4-year-old is a social media sensation. He has over 1.6 million followers on his Instagram. His account is managed by his parents. You would find incredibly dangerous and exciting videos of the little guy driving high-end sportscars on a daily basis. Understandably, this is widely applauded and criticized by the netizens in equal measure. Here are the details of this unique child.

Zayn Sofuoglu Drives Ferrari SF90 Stradale
Zayn is born to a Dutch-Algerian mother, Julia Looman and a Turkish 5-time Supersport World Champion, Kenan Sofuoglu. Youngest of the three siblings, you would find Zayn performing all sorts of stunts and adventure sports. Browsing through his Instagram page, we came across multiple occasions of him trying to learn water-skiing, riding superbikes around a track, parking Ferrari and other supercars on a towing vehicle in reverse, doing drifts, cooking and a lot more. His social media presence encapsulates all aspects of his privileged life.

While all this might be mega-impressive, we can’t run away from the fact that this is not natural or safe. In fact, many social media users constantly keep criticizing parents for using their children for content. What is worse is that they are doing all this while seemingly putting the life of the child in grave danger. Being just 4 years old, he can’t reach the pedal, steering wheel or look outside properly from the Ferrari. His father has added cushions and lifted the pedals up for him to drive. This is evidently immensely risky. In fact, in one of the videos, he is also seen falling off his bike while riding on a track.

What We Think
We see a lot of such cases on the internet where people put the lives of their children in danger in the name of content. But this case is slightly different. While there are incredible perils to the activities of Zayn too, we can see that his father has made a career out of a racing sport. Hence, he is aware of all the dangers involved in performing all these stunts. On top of that, he considers this as a part of Zayn’s training as he wishes to see him become a car racer of the highest calibre one day. Therefore, these can be considered as calculated risks. Nevertheless, we would like to advise our readers to never attempt anything like this.
