    Not only going sideways over crests, but just watching the front wheels constantly turning in the wrong direction as you were 'playing' with the steering to frighten the passengers! A masterpiece of driving. The GT3 had to be driven hard to keep up!
    A wonderful human being, always laughing, always having the passion to win at everything you did.

It's an art, and displayed here in its purest form! A proper racer doing their office job! sublime !!!!

    This man would have been a fool to try to pass Sabine for a good long while. Following the Queen around the 'Ring in a car fast enough to reliably keep up, learning her lines and techniques hands-on? That's a dream come true. All well and good that the 911 could clearly have passed that BMW a couple times in the first six minutes, why the hell would he WANT to?

      @@2003wrx64So tell me then why a standard R1 can lap Phillip Island race circuit 17 seconds quicker than a Porsche Cup car? It's only open-wheelers that can keep up with superbikes on any track when ridden by riders that can actually ride. It takes balls to ride a bike quickly but any twat can get in a car and jam the throttle to the floor.

      @@karlwalters3763 your numbers are wrong. Jorge Lorenzo has the track record of 127.899 on a MotoGP bike. Scott McLaughlin has the Porsche Cup record at 131.1343 according to Wikipedia. On courses where bikes are closer to car lap times, it's always because there are steep uphills out of slower turns, really long straightaways where downforce slows the top speed of cars, or long radius turns especially ones that open on exit. As for skill, MotoGP riders and F1 drivers are a dead heat.

    The biker at the end needs a lesson on circuit riding. When a car is on the edge like Sabines M5 was, do you REALLY want to have it make ANY sort of contact, just to say"I beat you, ESPECIALLY riding a bike"?
    Great drive by both, especially Sabine, the M5's rear end was twitching for nearly the whole lap. Good driving from the GT3 also!

      In defense of the rider, I bet he just was too focused on his own lap, also what many don't understand is that at a certain pace, you need the whole of the track. Only thing to resolve that poblem is seperated touristenfahrten for bikes and cars. I think this changed, this video has to be at least 10 years old.

    History of vehicles dates back a while now. Many manufacturers have produced some fine machines over the past 100 years or so. But only a small handful got it right. When the E39 ///M5 was created I firmly believe that the German Gods were in that design studio from start to finish. This is and will be the best sports sedan every produced. The newer ones come with fancy LED lighting and tricky info tainment touch screens to distract the real reason for driving. Why? Because manufacturers cannot match what the E39 ///M5 has done. There will never be another worlds fastest, sexy looking amazing 6 speed sedan ever made again like that one. A sedan today cannot hold the titles of an all round perfection as that E39 ///M5 once did. Can I get some votes?
