Name a corner of the Nürburgring Nordschleife after Sabine Schmitz

Post by f1m »

Sabine Schmitz, apart from being a world-wide celebrity, brilliant driver and fantastic ambassador for the region and the Nürburgring, was the first woman to win the Nürburgring 24-hour race in 1996. Not once, but twice.

The goal is 15000, which looks like it'll get hit in the next hour or so.

They need to name the slowest corner after the person on a motorcycle she blew by in a VAN on Top Gear.

Amazing woman. The videos I have seen on Youtube are great viewing. Very sad when I heard the news.
