Fans of Top Gear and/or motor racing will be familiar with the name and I just heard the sad new that Sabine Schmitz aka " Queen of the Nürburgring " died from cancer :(

RIP Sabine, your bits on Top Gear were always interesting and often very funny indeed.
You also showed the boys who was boss when it came to driving too!

One of my favourite bits is where she did a (just over) ten minute lap of The Nürburgring... in a diesel van. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5KiC03_wVjc
Who's the cat that won't cop out when there's danger all about?

I'd heard a couple years ago she was not very well and knew this day would come. what an absolute legend, and rightly queen of the ring.

She is the reason when my colleagues say they're faster than me, my reply is 'I can do that in a van'.

And I will ;) albeit mine is sometimes a 5,5T MGW LWB sprinter...it's the driver not the machine :P RIP Sabine
I wish I liked Quests as much as I love AFKing
