In 2004 she drove a Ford diesel van around the track for a Top Gear episode, lapping in just over 10 minutes — only nine seconds slower than fellow presenter Jeremy Clarkson's best effort in a Jaguar S-type.Jeremey was so proud of his effort, and she nearly matched it in a bog standard Ford Transit van. She died after a long battle with cancer. She was only 51. Grant Darwin NT |

Rest in Peace, Sabine. 51yo is way too young to have to leave this earth. Cancer is a wicked enemy that I hope we conquer one day soon. (I am doing Cancer Marker tasks on WCG.) "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |
