The thing that convinced me she was the best racer in the world was when she went the 2nd time with the van. She was disappointed, but also she didn't want to do it again because of how scary it was. For me, how humble and knowing her limits was what made her a legend. F****** cancer always has to destroy things when we're enjoying them the most.

True. Being super committed and yet _also_ knowing when to stop is both what makes her so impressive and also, probably, the reason the Nordschleife never claimed her life like it has to however many other hot shoes over the years. And yes, f__k cancer.

Watching Sabine hustle a Transit around the Ring with Richard Hammond holding on for dear life, while she's enjoying herself was one of the best things I've ever seen. And you knew how much of a racer she was when she wanted to try again, lightened the van as much as possible, got someone to pace her and then went out and wring everything out of that Transit. No one could have lapped the Ring faster in that van. Sabine Schmitz was a native of Nurburg, lived there her entire life, and got to do a job she loved. Can't get better than than

8:33 I was there in the Pit, when Johannes Scheid drove his Tribute Lap over the Nürburgring. (I´m in the shot actually). It was the Friday before the 24h Race. Qualifying Sessions were over and the teams are just to prepare their cars for the great race. But a last Event on the time table had to take part. All Teams came out of their Pit-Boxes were listening to the commentator.When Johannes Scheid drove his car trough the pitlane every team member spend applause for his drive. He drove slowly like 30 kph. And when he left the pits and went full throttle, the applause stopped and the only sound you can hear was the sound of the engine. The pit were silent and the atmosphere was depressed. But when the BMW arrived at the first corner, the audience continued the tribute of the teams and give him standing ovations too. I can hear the applause of the crowd till today. It was more silent because it was far away. You have to remember it was during corona and max. 10.000 visitors were allowed. On the video screens we could follow his lap during the time, we stood in pit. That was one of the most emotional moments of this year. The time after that it was clear, that she deserved his tribute to the nordschleife. It was not because she was a woman. It was because she was a children of the Nordschleife and the Nordschleife was her home. You can´t say Sabine Schmitz without thinking of the Nürburgring-Nordschleife. Thats because she got the tribute of her own corner. The bubble at the Nürburgring is a small one. She was part of this family from the beginning. (Sorry for my bad english)

I stopped watching Misha couple months ago, because I felt like he turned a bit to greedy with his monetization. I even commented that on the last video I watched and he knew me, because I was one of the first 10k subs. His answer was rather not professional and also justifying his greed. He‘s a cool guy and I wish him nothing bad! But for me that doesnt fit with Sabines personality, she was more down to earth in that regard.

We had parties at her pub after our 8 hour motorcycle races at the Nurburgring Grand Prix track. She will forever be missed. Queen of the Ring.

Rest in Peace Sabine,a true trailblazer. I remember how I found out she had passed, I was playing Forza motor sports and there was an update. After the update there was a challenge where they put her top gear 10 minute lap in a transit as a ghost car and you had to keep up with her. It really sank in when you finished the lap and the car disappeared and left a void no one can ever fill. The Queen of the Nurburgring.

Any female petrolhead - as I have been for over 50 years - has her as a hero. Pat Moss became a hero by default as she was my dad's biggest hero (he was also a rally driver). Sabine got there on her own merit. And thanks, you git, I'm crying again!

A worldie of a driver and a staggeringly lovely human to boot. Sorely missed.

Had the pleasure of meeting her a number of times over 2 days at the ring, for lunch at her parents hotel and at her house for one of her and her husband’s regular dinner events. I even had to help her after her day of ring driving because she had a knee operation and was back driving way too early and was in extreme pain and basically couldn’t walk after hours of driving. It was the end of the day and we were the only ones in the parking area, so I did my duty and aided her from her car. Amazing human being.

Admittedly, I didnt know much about her apart from her early Top Gear appearances and a bit of racing background. But Im very glad to learn more about her. It seems like she stood her ground and backed it up with amazing talent. Breaking barriers in racing isnt easy and Im sure there are a ton of girls in the world who admired her story and pursued racing because of her breaking through. People dont realize how one person inspiring even 2 or 3 others to follow their dreams despite whatever might hold them back, whether that be gender, race, religion, disability or orientation has a exponential impact going forward. Her inspiring another few who go on to inspire even more eventually becomes a norm and thats the goal for women in racing. Theres a person I admire greatly that once said, "I may not be the one to change the world, but I might be the one who inspires the person thats going to change the world" (paraphrased) I hope that holds true in Sabines case! RIP.

What an awesome tribute Josh.....nicely done mate. Such a shame she was taken so early, but I guess as with all these things we just have to appreciate what we got.

i was stationed in Germany in the late 90s, early 2000s. i built myself a little crappy VW go-kart out of a mk2 golf cabriolet. stripped out, hopped up a little, and really fun. i took it to the Ring all the time, racking up well over 100 laps on the Green Hell. one of my favorite memories was having the Queen rip right past me in the Ring Taxi while on track. knowing who she was in the world of motorsport, i felt honored. i will always bow to the great Queen. Long may she Race.

Your story telling skills are absolutely brilliant. Went into the video as someone who did not know Sabine and came out a fan. Thank you for this brilliant video.

Beautifully written and produced, Josh. This is quite possibly the best tribute to that lovely woman. She is and will always be missed, as much for her infectious smile and laughter as her amazing driving skills. Bravo, sir.

What a great KZbin episode. Having had the pleasure of speaking to Sabine at the Nurburgring I will say that she was humble and gracious and almost didn't seem to recognize her status among petrol heads. It was a great loss and she died way too young.

Thank you for making this tribute to a wonderful, talented woman. Brought a tear to the eye and a tremble to the lips of a stiff upper-lipped Englishman. Am just grateful that I saw the original TG episodes where Mrs. Schmitz showed us all who she was.

Just wanted to let you know that this is by far the best channel on KZbin in my opinion. Great subject matter, very educational and your sense of humor puts it over the top! Always look forward to seeing what you'll come up with next. I'll be a fan as long as the channel exists. Keep up the great work and thank you for providing me with even more knowledge about motorsports and making me laugh.
