Alright when was that again.....?

[krissboo]

Rest in Peace and may her laugh carry on the wind and echo round the Nurburgring for ever more

Holly crap no! Oh man was litterally just talking of her a couple of days ago, this is blindsiding! She was ace at the wheel, Queen of the ring! Can't believe im saying this twice in the space of just less than a week. Race.I.P. Sabine!

Sad news for motorsport, Sabine not only was a pioneer, she wins 2 times on the Old Ring, 1996 and 1997, now part of the magic gone with her, Queen has died long live The Queen, my best wishes to family, my respects from Spain

 

[Gui Azevedo]

Terrible news. RIP Queen of the Green Hell

 

[Quic Vic]

[Tom Blackett]

Another sad loss. RIP miss.

Rest in peace Queen, we'll always remember you for your speed and contribution to the world of motoring.

Like many, I remember her only from Top Gear and various other videos. Always smiling and cheerful, even amongst Britain's three stooges, and especially roaring and laughing around the 'ring she loved.

People talk about others "gone too soon" and so forth. Always remember the old adage: everyone dies, not everyone really lives. Sabine lived a full life many, regardless of gender, will not get to live. To the best of my knowledge, which admittedly isn't much, she asked for nothing and was happy to the absolute end with who she was. Be thankful for that; I don't need to guess that she was.

Now she's up there racing among the legends, with Murray Walker, James Hunt, and others providing commentary. Think on that possibility.

Danke schon Frau Schmitz, and rest peacefully. You definitely will not be forgotten.

I've tried to find an interview where that infectious smile and humor wasn't on display.
I couldn't find one.
This stings quite a bit.
She was a treasure.
Rest in peace Sabine.

S... i had no idea, Sabine was a fantastic spokesperson and representative for motorport, always funny and so happy with a contagious smile, she will leave a big void.

drinking coffee with Sabine in the pit caravan... 10 years ago on a fog friday nordschleife I was at the age of 38..... with cheese from Holland I give it to her. And every time I was going to the Nord Sabine was in my mind. R.i.p.. Sabine

Much love to Sabine and her family.
You've gotta respect anyone who can win a single lap of Nurburgring, let alone 24 hours, at any point in their life.
That 10-minute Ford Transit lap is so legendary to me.
Truly a queen of motorsports and she'll live on in my heart forever.
RIP Sabine.

 

[Kaygeeoh]

That beautiful smile will be missed.

 

[Prutscher]

Ruhe in Frieden!

 

[Gabyzen64]

R.I.P. Thank for all Sabine

I'll never forget the Top Gear episode where she overtakes every car in a van
Amongst the Valkyries now !!
