Sabine Schmitz Dies age 51

[PuntoHowTo]

Shocking to see this today, hadn’t heard anything about her battle

Obviously thoughts go out to her family and loved ones, will be missed from top gear and her mocking of clarkson and many other presenters on there that she bested many times over.

Made me really sad reading that . Had much respect for her, RIP Sabine.

What a great shame. Somebody who enriched the lives of us car nuts gone at 51. I will never forget the Top Gear episode where she lapped the Ring faster than Clarkson had managed in a Jag. Wonderful.
So Murray and Sabine gone in the same week. I suppose Murray was 97 but we will miss him dearly.

Murray represents the passing of an era. Sabine however will be truly missed cut down in her prime. So very sad.

Always very sad when someone so full of life is taken early.

Yes indeed it is. And it especially galling when wicked and useless people (the likes of Ian Brady come to mind) manage to live long lives . There ain't no justice.

I was floored when I saw that she passed.
