Nurburgring's touching tribute to Sabine Schmitz

The video shows some of Schmitz greatest moments around the circuit, which she claimed to have completed over 20,000 laps of the legendary Nordschleife.

Just watched the Top Gear tribute to Sabine Schmitz and I have to say - it was beautifully done and a fitting tribute to the queen of the Nurburgring. A must watch IMHO

Still remember the van episode of top gear she was such a joy to watch on screen. her love for automobiles and racing just shone through her smile and it was addictive.

Will be missed :(

This was so emotional. I almost cried at the end. I have no words to say.

She really was a force of nature.

Re: Sabine Schmitz, Queen of Nürburgring, passes away after a long battle with cancer

I have a friend who lives 20kms from Sabine's hometown in Germany and he also said that the day the dreaded news came there was a shared remorse in the entire town, after all, she was nothing short of a legend.

Thanks for sharing this thread, really touching to say the least... RIP Queen

I was new to top gear back then and this was the first time I was introduced to Sabine Schmitz. What a legend! Respect and Love.



This was one of the first 3-4 episodes of Top Gear that I had seen and was absolutely glued post that. I have seen each and every episode of top gear and was the motivation behind me getting the Amazon Prime membership.
