Tragic news. Sabine was one of the best things on Top Gear in our opinion. Sue says we could do with many more women like her in the motoring world. RIP Sabine.

She was great. I just loved watching the footage of her driving the wheels off a Transit to get it round the Nordschleife in under 10 minutes. Boy, could she drive.
RIP Sabine, I'm sure you're having a nice chat with Murray.
