Breaking: Sabine Schmitz, Queen Of The Nurburgring, Dies Aged 51

The Nurburgring will never be the same. Sabine Schmitz, who had been battling cancer since 2017, sadly passed away earlier today at the too-young age of 51. Known affectionately as the Queen of the Nurburgring, Schmitz grew up at the famed track (her family owns a restaurant there) and became an accomplished racing driver. In 1996, she became the first woman to achieve an overall victory at the 24 Hours of Nurburgring at the wheel of the legendary BMW M3 Eifelblitz. Her co-drivers were Johannes Scheid and Hans Widmann. She repeated that victory the following year. In 1998, she broke yet another barrier by becoming the first woman to become champion of the VLN endurance championship.
