Top Gear star and race car driver Sabine Schmitz has died, aged 51.
The German racing legend passed away after a three-year battle with cancer.
The operators of the renowned Nürburgring race track announced the news on Twitter on Wednesday.

I enjoyed watching her drive back in the day.

Some great footage on Youtube of her throwing some massive slides in M5 Ring Taxis too. Was on the bucket list to get one of those, ideally driven by her.

Shit.

Didn't know she was ill. Sad.

Motorsport fumes in general would be hazardous - no emissions regs plus running all sorts of additives for competitive advantage.
