Kaï Rillaerts
As you probably already know (by the massive title above), my name is Kaï Rillaerts.
I was born on 21 August 2006 in beautiful though rainy Belgium.
I got into motorsport, in essence, because both my parents were also engaged in it.
Since I was 5 years old, therefore, I have known no other thing than motorsport.
I not only give my best on the track, but also besides it.
This in both the obvious things like fitness and nutrition plans, as well as dedicating myself very hard into Social Media. With a combined following of more than 700,000 people, I am the biggest racing influencer from Belgium
Let me take you through the story of my life...
Below you can see in quick succession what that has looked like so far.
You can find some of my highlights and additional information about other topics.
So let's go!
A quick overview.
-
2011 - My first steps
At the age of 5, I started my career in motorsport. This although not in karting, but in motocross.
-
2012 - On 4 wheels
Less than a year later, I traded in my motorbike for a kart. However, I wouldn't drive my first race untill 2014.
-
2016 - Winning championships
I stepped into the Mini-Max class. Here I became rookie champion in the BMC and BNL. A year later, I succeeded myself as official champion.
-
2020 - Domination
From 2020, I won multiple championship titles, including Belgian, BNL, Dutch and European champion. In 2021, I again won all championships, including the RMCIT in Le Mans, and took bronze at the World Championship in Bahrain.
-
2022 - Senior
In 2022, I switched to the Senior class and won all the titles in this category. In 2023, I won several titles, including the Winter Cup in Campillos and the Golden Trophy, and became World Champion (OT) in Bahrain.
-
2023 - Porsche
In early 2023, I got the chance to test the fantastic Porsche GT3 on Europe's most beautiful circuits.
I competed in the 3h of Spa Francorchamps and the 12h of Monza.
-
2024 - End of an era
In 2024, I left the Rotax class behind and switched completely to the OK class, developing further and leaving the karting chapter behind later in the year.
-
2025 - Lamborghini
After a successful test-day earlier in the year, I will drive my first full season in the Lamborghini Super Trofeo in 2025.
Lamborghini.
In early 2024, I was contacted by ‘Aggressive Team Italia’. A team that races in Lamborghini Super Trofeo. The longest-standing Lamborghini competition that races on the most famous circuits across Europe. The series involves exclusively Huracán Super Trofeo Evo model cars.
On 15 March 2024, I drove my first test at the Autodromo Riccardo Paletti in Varano, Italy. After getting a feel for the car, I set a solid lap time that surprised everyone.

In 2025, I will drive my first full season of Lamborghini Super Trofeo. Something to look forward to with great excitement!
Porsche.
In early 2023, I got the chance to test the fantastic Porsche GT3 Cup at Redant Racing team.
At Circuit Zolder in belgium, I drove a fantastic time giving me the chance to participate in the 3h of Spa Francorchamps on the 3 June 2023.
Because of my 4th place in Spa, I was allowed to compete in the 12h of Monza a week later. It was a tough race, but on 11 June 2023, I became the youngest ever winner of the 12h of Monza!
This is unfortunately the last time I had the opportunity to drive this awesome car, but who knows what the future holds!
Karting.
I started training for karting in 2012 and competed in my first races in 2014. In the following years, I won several titles in the Micro Max, Mini Max and Junior Max classes, both nationally and internationally.
I became Rookie champion and won several championships such as the BMC, BNL, and European titles. From 2020, I won championships on the Belgian, Dutch and European circuits, and took bronze at the World Championship in Bahrain in 2021.
In 2022, I switched to the Senior class, where I again won several titles including the World Champion title (OT).
In 2024, I left the Rotax class to focus completely on the OK class, which I would leave at the end of that year to focus fully on car racing.
Social Media.
Both on and off the track, I always try my best. This includes social media.
With over 750,000 people following me on Instagram, TikTok, Snapchat and Youtube, I try to create fun content to entertain people just about every day.
Business-wise, I try and leverage my social media to invest in my racing career.
Either way, it's all about racing. No matter how you look at it.
Without my fans, I would certainly not be where I am today, and for that I am eternally grateful to each and every one of them!
Coaching.
When I am not driving myself I keep myself busy coaching other drivers. This not only in terms of driving skills, but also in everything that is involved in racing. By this I understand for example: Social Media, communication with mechanics, and so on.
