Sad news indeed, put the Top Gear crew to shame with her driving skills.

She's in almost all of the (very few) episodes of TG that I still enjoy since growing up.

RIP Sabine Schmitz

Absolutely gutted.

I didn't know she was ill, not that that helps at all.

Incredible driving skill, and some truly amazing TV (Transit around the Nurbergring).

Not a good week for motorsport

:(

Really sad news, now it explains why she has been missing from the last few series of Top Gear.

May the Queen of the Ring rest in peace!

So sad such a talent should be gone so young. Sabine always seemed to be laughing and never took herself seriously, especially in the Top Gear head to heads with the 'English v Germans'.

I also didn't know she was ill, very sad, she seemed a genuine personality, and a great driver.
