Such awful news! Like a punch to the gut. I had just shown some of the guys at work her YouTube video driving a van around the Ring at rocket speed. Sad, she had such a warm personality and a tremendously gifted driver.
So shocking... only 51. such a young person. always liked her on-cam personality, and from that, I hear she was a real genuine what you see is what you get person. Truly RIP. she was on one of my bucket lists to get a ring ride from.
Oh no, that's terrible news! I would have loved to go for a ride along with her on the Nürburgring someday. All the best, Andrew.
Such a shame to see somebody so full of fun and life struck down so young. RIP lovely lady. The rest of you, be kind and enjoy everyday that you can, nobody knows what the future will bring.
Murray and Sabine in the same week. I didn't know she was sick but wondered why she dropped off of the American version of Top Gear (prior to it dropping into thin air). A brilliant driver and was a credit to that program. RIP
Apparently she got diagnosed in 17, got better and then 8 months ago it got back... so sad Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
RIP Sabine, such sad news. She loved life and was a true racer with talent and an enthusiast. Condolences to her family and loved ones.
What a joy to watch. Thank you. I heard she was ill. She always came across as genuine and a terribly nice person. Would have loved to see her drive the Ring as a Senior. 2021, give us a break. Very sad news yet again. Sincere condolences to her family and friends.
My favorite memory of her was an appearance she had with Michael Schumacher. After, I always thought they should have had superbabies, able to drive the ring blindfolded etc
There is talk now that a part of the Nordschleife will be named after her. That'd be only fitting for the Queen of the Ring.
