So sad to find out that she just died today. Rest In Peace, Sabine. You’ll always be the Queen of the Ring.
DanielJ_00 Very unfortunate news. R.I.P and condolence to her family. 🙏
Amazing woman.
Very sad indeed. A truly great driver. Rest in peace.
Yea it is!!
Rest In Peace!
Very sad Rust in Peace Queen of the green hell
R.I.P Sabine. My heart is crying. She was such a wonderfull woman.
What a great personality RIP
RIP Sabine, absolutely gutted :'(
How awfully sad. What a lovely girl. The best Top Gear item they ever did.
Just heard the news. Terribly sad. She was lovely. R.I.P. Sabine.
How is it that those who are full of zest with life be taken far too early? Sabine is one of a kind all of her appearances in Top Gear is such a joy and pleasure.
I’m really happy that the Nurburgring has decided to honour her forever by naming turn one after her. She was truly a great inspiration to many!!
That's great to hear.
Right decision but it would be perfect if all the circuit was intitled to Sabine
That's amazing to hear! I hadn't heard that until now, just cane back to enjoy her driving around the ring after doing it myself endlessly I'm Asseto Corsa
That is fantastic!
@@neriozulberti1492 Huh?
Even if we discount all the other amazing things she did for a second, the fact that she's driving a van, shouting at a Dodge Viper in front of her to go faster makes her an absolute legend. RIP, Sabine. The world isn't the same without you x
I think she was shouting at the van, not the viper. But your version is funnier.
@@KimonFrousios but she do shout at motorbikes :D
She was a legend in driving. Sadly she lived in times, where female drivers didnt get any respect
Screaming at the motorcycles and porsche's to get out of the way. Priceless!
The best thing about Sabine is that I haven’t ever heard one single negative comment about her. Universally liked. 10:08 in a transit van. What a legend. RIP
That's exactly right my friend......it is EXTREMELY difficult for a person who is famous to not have an online enemy or someone who doesn't particularly like them.....
But I'm yet to find one single comment from a person who doesn't like her or have a positive word to say about her 😊
What a character.....what charisma..... you are sorely missed Sabine,from all over the world 😘😊
There's simply nothing bad to say about her, such a wonferful person. 😍😭
Even in the worst days of Top Gear's presenter turmoil, she lifted the whole thing - what a wonderful person
AND a std spec transit van too !!!!
to me she has a mysteriously very charismatic aura...
She isn't gone, she is just a lap ahead us.
Damn this comment hits hard in the feels. RIP Sabine.
Right in the fuckin feels there man
Best comment.
Amen
I really felt her loss when I read your comment.
Who else came back to see her epicness? Rest in peace Sabine.
Me
Had to. Such a sad loss.
Yep, just back to watch some of her epic ness once more.
Me too. Such a sad loss. RIP Sabine. 😢
Came to watch her epicness.. watched with a tear in my eye.. what an amazing woman.
Watching in 2024, such a great tv memory. RIP a gorgeous talented lady.
This really hurts. I usually don't get sad at celebrity deaths, but for some reason Sabine Schmitz's passing has really affected me. She was a true driving hero and an all-around amazing person by all accounts.
I feel the same way. Celebrities are not any more important than any one else, but she was radiant and charming who brightened up this dreary world. I love the way she mischievously lifts her eyebrows at 5:48 in this video. Without even meeting her, you can tell she would lift your spirits on any occasion.
@@gregoryjames1902 I don't get sad at celebrity deaths either most times but this hurt. It doesn't tell you in this video, but I believe she drove Clarkson's Jaguar around the circuit in around 8 mins. RIP you beautiful charming lady.
I think it is because she was real. I feel the same way.
@@mglsite That is it she was a damn good driver that found fame through that skill,celebrities LOOK for fame by acting most of the time
Sabine Schmitz was no vacuous 'celebrity', she was a LEGEND in her own time. RIP Queen of the Nurburgring.
I'm gonna miss her.
She showed me that girls can race and love cars. She gave me so much hope when I was young. Now, 20 years later, I'm a mechanic. And a girl. RIP Sabine, we are all gonna miss you.
Edit:
I still come back and watch this lap from time to time. A year later and I still get sad. One of the greatest laps around any track ever.
You will be pleased to find out about Hannelore Werner, Germany's first female Race driver. She once removed a fender mid-race on the track and bare handed, because it was blocking her wheel. She still got fifth place.
She once said that in a training phase she only gave half of what she was able to because some of the men were badmouthing her. When the race came, she gave 100% and schooled them. One of them quit afterwards, I think.
@@Far1988 Nice story and all but that won't bring Sabine back to life 😥
This is exactly the inspiration she has frequently said she wanted to be. It's always sad when someone wonderful dies but it's nice to know people like you are her legacy.
@@alexthurner43 you're right, stories like that keep her ALIVE.
So glad she had that impact on you.. we need more of you in the world, Sabine lives on. More women in motorsport is what we all want, guys and girls. I think she would be beaming with pride right now!! :)
I have virtually zero interest in cars but i remember seeing this when it originally aired by accident...and i never forgot the outrageously cute and funny German girl who seemed so radiant, passionate and with incredible charisma, living her dream and loving every minute of it...what a wonderful woman. Ruhe in Frieden Sabine.
Yeah, she loved her job and it showed. In my book that is sucess.
Well said. Felt the same
Monkey Man, same here. You describe Sabine perfectly for me. So much charisma, humility and humour.
I didn't even know this girl and in the span of 7 minutes she's made me smile and cry. RIP.
Jeremy Clarkson: "Such a sunny person and so full of beans"
James May: "I never thought car makers should be at the ‘Ring, but I always thought Sabine Schmitz should, and would, be"
Richard Hammond: "a proper driving legend who’ll be sadly missed by many. The Ring has lost its Queen."
Rest Easy Sabine ❤️
For may to say she belonged on the ring in a honorary way says a lot cause he fuckin hates the Nurembergring
Getting a Van around the Nurbergring in just over 10 minutes is the ultimate testament to how good she was. In fact, in the first lap she wasn't really taking it seriously and then in the solo lap, she was so spent from driving as hard as her limits would take her.
Came straight here after hearing sadly of Sabine’s passing. To get a transit van around the Nurburgring in 10:08 is phenomenal and to this day is still, to me, one of the greatest feats of motor racing I’ve ever seen. An inspirational woman to women everywhere she will be missed but forever immortalised in this great bit of television. R.I.P Queen of the Nurburgring Sabine Schmitz 1969-2021
The drivers would have been like: "DID I JUST GET OVERTAKEN BY A WOMAN IN A VAN" and then they would've seen it was Sabine and gone: "oh ok nevermind"
If you're driving so slow you're not so much into racing anyway and probably didnt knew her back then.
It’s happened to many men when I hire a Transit and hit the motorway. Nothing like that van driving feeling.
Watching this after the news she has passed away, it’s so hard to imagine someone this full of life and energy being gone. I remember watching this episode when I was 8 years old and realising women can like cars and going fast too.
A true icon who will be truly missed.
Well said. horrible disease. Some people are just so unlucky. It's really not fair.. but she lived her life to the fullest!! a truly remarkable woman!! And we were there to witness it 💖💖 r.i.p.
I’m smiling and crying in the same time, she was such a positive Person, full of life. Life simply isn’t fair.
R.I.P.
It's sad. Why do the good ones go early?
@@karlrudd8914 I guess as an example and as a reminder so we don’t forget who we are and what we are supposed to do on the planet. Find your passion. Find your own way of life. The true meaning. Be humble and try to be a good person. Every single day.
@@soulrider69able Damn straight. I just wish the brightest flame could burn a bit longer
In an earlier part of this segment, Richard mentioned that people struggle to make the Nurburgring in under 10 minutes in a Porsche. To which Sabine simply replied and laughed: “They are slow, but I’m fast”.
Rest In Peace, Sabine. And thank you for one of my favorite Top Gear memories.
“We didn’t realize we were making memories, we just knew we were having fun” - Winnie the Pooh.
10:08 in a van is utterly insane even today, RIP Sabine, you will be missed.
A diesel van.
and a diesel van at that.
Who else is here after hearing the news of her passing? Incredible driver, she will be sorely missed 😢
Clearly.
Yep. This was a iconic ride. The fastest Transit driver in the world. RIP.
Yes as soon as i heard i came to have another look at this amazing feat by an amazing lady, RIP Sabine, you lived a life.
Rest in Peace, Sabine. Please don't delete this video.
Its been up for 12 years; its going nowhere.
"I must be crazy!" Yes, and that's why we loved you. RIP Sabine
She has officially become the chase ghost of nurburgring. She will always be in front of you teaching you the line and breaking points.
Such a sweet thing to say
I'm fighting back the tears today, for some reason losing Sabine has hit me pretty hard. She was such an amazing person, always good to watch, those scenes with Jeremy Clarkson are golden, i'm a bit broken today.
Same bro
Must be the rain....
Same here, and I never feel anything when people I dont know passes away.. 😥
RIP Sabine, a German with a sense of humor and best female driver ever.
@@cypsoon have some class
@@eoinfitzsimons you got right i should use other words. No offence to anyone
RIP but you should meet more German people, they are usually hilarious in my experience.
German humor is generally drier and almost never personally offensive, but they are very funny. As an american some of my favorite standups and sketch comedy types are German.
How I loved this woman a fantastic personality
“You’re being overtaken by a van driven by a girl” This is by far the best thing Top Gear has ever done. So sad and shocked to hear of Sabine passing R.I.P.
Have you noticed... They cut the 'driven by a girl' part out.
@@sahhull 5:19
@@sahhull yes I suspect it’s the woke pc brigade at the BBC at it again thinking the remark is sexist. Their too dim to realise that Richard’s joke is on the all male posers in their Porsche’s and on their motorbikes certainly not on Sabine or women.
@@sahhull Some people probably cry sexism for that statement. :D
@@sahhull No they didn´t 5:19
She did a lap of the Ring in a diesel van in around 10 minutes. Race cars can't do that but she did it in that. A freaking legend, we lost someone truly special. Rest in power, Sabine.
A guy did it with a diesel Citroen AX
Race cars can do it easily. The Viper wasn't even challenged as the draft car. But I can still imagine the driver laughing about how fast it did have to go to keep pace with the van.
The background of this challenge is that Jeremy wanted to run the Ring in a diesel to show that it was at least a better diesel than most, so first he had her as the guide, then kept running until he finally broke under 10 minutes. He went back to Sabine to gloat, and she responded that she could do 10 minutes in a VAN. So they gave her the shot at it.
I don’t know what your talking about but the Porsche 919 Hybrid completed it in nearly half the time (5:19:545).
That’s a "race car"...
It did that...
@@hayzarx2018 it's also like 18 years ahead of the 3rd gen Transit's time, but tbf, a road legal R34 GTR could also do faster than 10mins. Comparing vans to vans, the newest VW Transporter driven by Rob Austin finally beat Sabine's time I think 2yrs ago?
@@brianng9765 only by 10 seconds
Sad to report that Sabine has recently succumbed to cancer at the age of 51. This was one of my favourite memories of her.
me too
@@Sennaxm71 Just seeing the face of Richard Hammond as the passenger. I think I'd have been in the same boat though. But, what an experience that must have been.
@@neilbowers6956 Indeed, it must have been great, I consider them to be very privileged to have spent any time with her, let alone go round the Ring with her giving it the beans, so jealous lol
Me too. Not only was she a very talented racing driver, but she had such an uplifting happy personality, and was such a beautiful lady in every way. RIP Sabine
Same. That's why I came to watch this moment again.
She was a hell of a driver and a wonderful person with a winning smile. She will be sorely missed. My heart goes out to her family they've lost a truely lovely person. R. I .P Sabine
@@jamesfletcher1439 You mean Eddy?
This is why Top Gear is the most watched car show in the world. She did a ten minute lap in a van on the Nürburgring. Who the hell does segments like that?
It also helps that we have those three crazy commentators. Jeremy Clarkson even wrote a few books such as "The world according to Clarkson" and it's HILARIOUS. I laughed my ass off through every chapter because only "Jezza" Clarkson could write stuff like this: "In a recent survey to the find the happiest people in the world, the super smug Swiss came out on top. Just 3.6% of the population realized that having a punctual bus service and someone else's teeth are not the be all and end all of life and said they were dissatisfied with their lot." Damn. I was tired after reading only two chapters because I was giggling uncontrollably through the book.
largol33t1 LOL I'm currently reading that book LOL
largol33t1 how much that book cost and where can i find it plz?
ande andeande Its a few years old now, best bet is Ebay or Amazon, I'm currently reading how one night, while wearing Russian surplus night vision goggles and trying to shoot Foxie Woxie, he accidentally shot and killed David Beckham...well... a chicken called David Beckham LOL.
:D ok thx
You know she's a pro when she says she can't count the number of times she's crashed. Role model! And an amazing person.
Just heard the news. This is beyond heartbreaking. Breaking stereotypes and egos on the most amazing track in the world. What a woman.
heartbreaking :(
As Clarkson said, she's "absolutely full of beans." Ruhe in Frieden, Sabine. Thank you for all the fun, you'll always be the Queen of the Nürburgring.
Anybody else watching this after the tragic passing of Sabine :'(
Me, sadly. May her soul rest in peace.
Yes 😞😟😔😢.
I watched it 1 hr before i heard the news. I didn't know she was ill either. A real shock.
Sadly yes 😞
Yes sadly too, a lovely lady, RIP
Ah, Sabine. You were such a joy to watch. Your energy, enthusiasm and determination, coupled with your sense of sheer *FUN* will be sorely missed. Gone far, far too early. You're missed by all your fans.
"Anyone can drive a fast car, few can drive a car fast."
Many try most crash and die
I have been racing for some time now and can tell you slower can be faster. It is this concept that people don't understand, hence the saying "slow is fast".
Actually they can, but only once!
ralph gull “wisdom sentence” lol
*van
Pretty sure this is in everyone’s fave memories of Sabine. What a queen she was. Thank you for everything you shared with us - may you rest in eternal SPEED!!!! Give all of the good souls a race to the gates sister!!!
Rest in peace, Sabine. What a wonderfully brilliant woman.
What an incredible woman and a brilliant driver and personality. RIP, Sabine. You'll never be forgotten.
Who says Germans have no humour. Sabine & your family deepest respect. Sabine broke so many barriers. not least stereotypes. Beileid, Respekt & Alles lieben diese besondere Dame
germans have a great sense of humour. you're just not allowed to laugh in germany
@@cvspvr Its a government thing...
RIP motorcycle guys dignity
Being overtaken on the Nurburgring by Sabine Schmitz absolves him.
I wouldn't be ashamed if I got overtaken by her driving a Prius.
+Akshay Mathur She could overtake me in a Daihatsu Midget for all I care. Being overtaken by Sabine is a bigger honor than any kiss on the first date.
Maybe he was chasing the car in front of him or checking the track out first.
Akshay Mathur Assuming the biker didn't already end his life before finding out it was her or before this episode aired on Top Gear UK.
Max Maude They never had a dignity
Imagine being on a sport bike, feeling like you own the ring, and then you get passed AT SPEED by a Transit Van with a lady screaming at you in a German accent to get out of her way.
What an incredible human being! Rest in Peace, Sabine
I always thought that the only thing that might have made that visual better was if she had done this in a passenger Transit with little dummy children, so that the bikes and Porsches would have been passed at speed by a soccer mom screaming in a German accent to get out of her way...
@@Pupda Passenger Transit is heavier, due to the windows and seats etc. so probably the time would have been slower.
@@Pupda isn't that the Transit Tourneo? Or am i wrong? XP
@@welshwolfie8806 No you aren't it's just the 1999 model.
@@VramanNoodles hmm, for some reason, i always thought the Transits are the ones with the empty loadspace and the Tourneos had the passenger seats (like Minibuses and van based taxis and stuff) then the Transit/Tourneo Connect was just the small, car based version :P
Rest In Peace Sabine - a lovely, funny person, and a true racing legend!
Clarkson: "You're cheaper than Hammond, you're much better looking, you're quicker, you're taller, and you speak better English."
BBC: "Hmm, good point."
+Pulsar77 AND she speaks better German as well!
+Pulsar77 Apparently so, she's one of the new presenters.
Lol!
Actually she has a strong dialect / accent from the german mountain-region she is coming from (the Eifel).
May: Ooh cock.
We all came here after hearing the tragic news. She was brilliant.
R.I.P Sabine Schmitz! ✨ This is so heartbreaking.
I was lucky enough to get tickets to see Top Gear being filmed live, and this was the episode I went to see. The highlight being, at the end of the filming, Sabine hung around spoke to loads of the audience and signed our Top Gear magazines. She was an amazing driver, a true talent behind the wheel, but on top of all that, she seems such a lovely, genuine person. Everyone who met her will be glad to have experienced such an amazing person and so sad to have lost her so young :(
That would have been amazing. Top Gear was just an awesome show back then too.
Watching this again, i have to agree with Hammond. Inspiring to see how much joy she had in what she was doing, especially if she was driving any car as fast as possible.
I think everyone of us should try and be as happy as Sabine. And Sabine, rest in peace. Some people believe in some form of afterlife, well if there is you're probably racing Senna now.
R.i.p., so eine nette Frau, selbst für jeden Zuschauer im Boxenbereich beim 24 h Rennen hatte sie ein Lächeln und einfreundliches Wort, a kind tough Lady
Amen to that - what a wonderful person :(
I didn't even realise how much I appreciated and liked this women. Sabine I'm genuinly sad that you and your addictive smile are now longer with us. Ruhe in Frieden.
Sabine Schmitz in an interview (in German) told this story about how hard she had to work to get Jeremy under 10 Minutes! When he finally achieved this goal he was very proud of himself. But then Sabine got in the same car and finished the round in about 9 Minutes 20 Seconds! And then she added this famous Van Challenge! And the best she almost delivered ... only 8 Seconds too slow! What a round! R.I.P. Queen of the "Nordschleife"!
To put thing into perspective between production cars and factory race cars...I reckon that Porsche hybrid which holds the record could get into the 4 minutes if it had 2 more gears in the box, it spent far too long red lining...Niki Lauda said nobody could do it in under 7 minutes, shows how quick technology evolved?
@@williamrae9954 Tbf at the time Niki was the only person to ever lap the ring in under 8 minutes and he did that in an F1 car, which were eventually deemed to be too dangerous for the Ring (and at the time they certainly were). It was assumed back then that even if a car could be built that was capable of lapping that quickly, it would be too dangerous to attempt it.
They also said that when Sabine did the 9:20 in the Jaguar, the Top Gear film crew cannot keep up with her to the point they need to bring in Jaguar's test driver in a chase car to get close. What she did was crazy!
She was an extremely gifted driver and will be so missed.
Her laugh was so infectious. You couldn't help but laugh with her. Rest easy Sabine
RIP Sabine😢 she sadly lost her battle to cancer 😖😣
so young, so unfair
"I've lapped the Nurburgring in ten minutes and eight seconds."
"That's pretty good! What were you driving - a BMW or a Porsche?"
"No, a diesel Ford Transit van."
Respects to a incredible inspirational woman. Every time I see her she makes me smile.
Rest in peace Sabine far to early. She was an exceptional driver and a lovely person.
May god bless your family.
A little part of the circuit could be named after Sabine in tribute.
R.I.P Sabine, genuinely shed a tear watching this again.
This beautiful human being really knew how to drive. She did things on the track mere mortals like me can't even do on a video game. Rest in peace, Queen of The Ring. You will be missed.
Earlier than the end of time is too early to have Sabine taken from us. Absolute sweetheart, she was
Ruhe in Frieden Sabine :'( :'( wir werden dich total vermissen DU warst DIE Queen der Rennstrecke.
Sabine is not gone... She's just one lap ahead. RIP
Oh man it is very true............. I missed her so much I met her once but not directly she was in her Bmw and i was on my cbr 600 at the Rings parking lot
I like how you think!=_)
Well said. RIP Sabine.
I think Sabine would like your comment.
Nicely put.
RIP... man this brings tears to my eyes. She was a freaking legend! She will always be remembered in the hearts of all petrolheads!!
Boooooy I cried watching this again. The joy in her face. She is such an inspiration.
R.I.P Sabine Schmitz
“Oversteer and understand and everything ooooo” this episode always made me laugh. Rest easy Sabine.
every Porsche the van overtakes, Hammond's little Porsche fanboy heart dies.
RIP Sabine. You gorgeous talented driver. We will love you forever.
Rip Sabine!
Die beste und sympathischste ist nicht mehr unter uns!
Germany had engineered some wonderful things........Sabine was one of their best.
She wasn't engineered, she was built by angels.
@@hb1338 Vorsprung durch angelic
Awesome lady
I'm afraid we can't rebuild her, we don't have the Technologie anymore.
That van was MOVING. Only Sabine can make such a thing possible.
Doing that in just 10 minutes in a freaking VAN is just mind-boggling. Farewell Sabine. I will miss you.
Didn't realize that Sabine had died! Really shocked me! What a wonderful lady and a great driver! Someone with her amazing spirit should never die! God bless her.
Unfortunately, cancer spared no one. Not even Sabine, and I really hate admitting it
Sehr traurig, dass sie so früh gestorben ist. Ruhe in Frieden🙏🏼
Very sad, that she so early died is. rest in peace?
It’s so unfair she died so soon. Beautiful and fearless with a wonderful sense of humour. She is and will be sorely missed.

I love how everyone has the utmost respect for Sabine, and all she had to do is have her insane driving skills speak for herself. You will be missed but never forgotten, I hope you can teach them in heaven a thing or two on how to thrash a diesel van around a racetrack in record time
Sad news today as Sabine lost her battle with Cancer. RIP and as @FormulaMiguel said on Twitter, “Sabine isn’t gone, she’s one lap ahead!” 💔💔💔
"I must be crazy" Yes Sabine, that's why we love you.
I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say you are in our thoughts at this time and wish you the very best. You can beat this, you're a winner.
Oh no, what happened to her?

your fans in Australia are behind you all the way take care and we wish you all best stay strong and kick cancers ass mate 😎
Although she's gone, this never fails to make me smile. What a brilliant woman and an amazing sense of humour! The ring has lost its Queen
I came here in tribute. I was such a fan of this woman since seeing this on Top Gear in 2004. RIP Sabine. You really showed the boys how to do it!!
Laughing and crying. Thank you Sabine for so many great moments on the Nordschleife!
When I heard the news today this was the first video I had to come and watch. Such sad news. Rest in peace Sabine. The Nurburgring has lost its Queen.
One of the best episodes. Really cool concept.
Had to come back and watch after hearing the sad news. What an amazing , beautiful and talented woman. Life can be cruel and hope her family are strong to get through this together. Queen Sabine we will miss you. 😢
Sie war die Queen vom Nürburgring, holte diverse Siege zb. 2 mal 24 Stunden Rennen. Wir Rennsportfans werden dich vermissen! Ruhe in Frieden🏴
Fully get you on this... It's hit us quite hard as a car community because she was real, and she was a true petrolhead herself.
Vermissen, aber niemals vergessen.
Race in Peace Queen of the Nordschleife ♥
RIP, the Queen of Nurburgring. You will forever be remembered in our hearts.
What always gets me is when she calmly explains her pedalling technique while Hamster is hanging on for dear life with an increasingly greenish hue in his face.
You all know why we're here now.
RIP
what a woman, such a personality, such a talent, such charisma, such an untimely loss, rip sabine thank you for the memories!
RIP Sabine. Very very sad news of her passing. Her determination, cheerful attitude and sense of humor were infectious. She will be greatly missed. Nurburgring lost it's Queen but gained an Angel. 😢
There will never be another queen of the Nurburgring. God bless her beautiful soul.
Sabine and Jeremy seemed to have an authentic chemistry that built over her many cameos. What a charming lady.
Her light, funny, condescending laughter is so iconic
She is just amazing. And watching this clip brought a tear to my eye...the great years of Top Gear.
Amen, these were the golden years.
+dtofq Your comment is like a beautiful poem:
tear

She's fighting Cancer now I'm sorry to say
Such a fantastic soul this lady had... it's taken me this long to watch this as I knew I would have tears in my eyes... such a lost to the world.... and her family.... your light will always shine... bless you🙏
After all the time spent mastering the Green Hell, I hope you’re now enjoying your time up in Green Heaven. Rest easy Sabine!
RIP Sabine, you made a hell of an impression to millions of men..
Man riding high performance sports bike " honestly, I would have posted a much faster time, but the place was gridlocked with delivery drivers" RIP gorgeous girl.
Such a beatifull smile she had, great energy and aparently she was really friendly as well, man... RIP Sabine
For once RUclips's algorithm did good and added a number of videos of Sabine in my suggested watch list. Great to look back and remember how brilliant she was. R.I.P.
