Zayn Sofuoğlu, from Turkey, was shown in an Instagram video decked out in his own personalized racing gear approaching the SF90 Stradale.

The video then cuts to the toddler’s father, former professional motorcycle racer Kenan Sofuoğlu, putting a helmet on his child.

“1000hp under control on the track,” reads the post’s caption.

The video then cuts to the younger Sofuoğlu in his booster seat revving the engine before taking off.

Footage of the car’s interior shows Sofuoğlu in his booster seat and handling the car with ease, considering the car generates an output of 986 horsepower.

But the little tyke doesn’t stop just at cars. Another Instagram video shows the baby racer riding an 1800 CC motorbike with a smile plastered on his face.

The Post reached out to Sofuoğlu for comment.

Several viewers were floored by the child’s driving expertise.

“We are witnessing what a child can do when given the opportunity. If only every child could have such beautiful opportunities,” commented one user.

“Every child is special. Every child of mine is capable. It only waits to be discovered with opportunity.”

“Can someone check this kid’s birthday date? He could be Paul Walker reincarnated,” laughed one user referencing that late “Fast and Furious” actor who died in 2013.

“We are eagerly waiting for the days when you will race in F1,” said another.

Other people slammed the child for getting behind the wheel while underage.

“Well, in the future, this child’s blood will be faster before the driving license reaches. He took his car or motorcycle without permission and ran away,” slammed one commenter.

“May God protect him, he had an accident, took his life and then went to prison. How can his father be so proud? Let’s be objective, please.”
