K1 Speed signs multi-year sponsorship with young racing prospect Zayne Burgess
Indoor karting operator K1 Speed has entered into a multi-year partnership with 10-year-old racing talent Zayne Burgess as he pursues a career in Formula 1.
K1 Speed, an operator of indoor go-karting centers, has announced a multi-year sponsorship deal with 10-year-old American racer Zayne Burgess. The partnership links the company with a driver who began his karting career at a K1 Speed facility in Miami at age five.
Burgess has demonstrated significant progress on the international circuit in 2026, recording 15 podium finishes in 16 races, including victories in the WSK Super Master Series and the Italian Championship. Currently a factory driver for Parolin Motorsport and a member of the TWG Motorsports driver development program, he is part of a developmental pipeline that aims to transition young drivers from indoor karting to competitive outdoor racing.
CEO David Danglard stated that the agreement reflects the company’s objective to assist emerging talent. Under the terms of the deal, Burgess will represent K1 Speed on his racing suit and helmet and participate in promotional initiatives. He will debut the branding at the upcoming SKUSA SuperNationals in Las Vegas in November.
