Steve van hool 251 Report post Posted December 23, 2020 (edited) I was sorry to hear the Queen of the Ring Sabine Schmidt is battling cancer, famously told Jeremy Clarkson on Top Gear that she could drive a van faster than he could a car, and very nearly did, in a Ford Transit on the Nürburgring, it was good TV. she also gave an E39 M5 a good thrashing around the Ring, with its gorgeous sounding engine seemingly wonderfully unburstable. It's on Utube) Wishing you well sweetie Edited December 23, 2020 by Steve van hool 3 Keliuss, Keith_H and oldjohnny reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whiskychaser 767 Report post Posted December 23, 2020 Perhaps not as famous as Doro Pesch, she is still one of those larger than life German ladies. Reminds me a lot of one of my cousins - she would challenge you to arm wrestle and probably win.

Mr H 39 Report post Posted December 24, 2020 A lovely lady who truly comes across on TV as a genuine car lover and fun person with a wicked sense of humour. All the best Sabine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

E39Man 16 Report post Posted December 26, 2020 That is sad news, hope she recovers fast. There’s something about her energy on tv that made me smile Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
