Sabine Schmitz was more than just the fastest woman to ever lap the Nü rburgring-she was its spirit made flesh. Born in the village of Nü rburg and raised beside the legendary Nordschleife, Schmitz grew up listening to the roar of engines and the screech of tyres. Her life was inseparable from the "Green Hell," a circuit she would come to dominate, charm, and represent like no other.
From her fearless laps in the BMW M5 Ring Taxi to her history-making victories in the 24 Hours of Nü rburgring, from her charismatic presence on Top Gear to her trailblazing role as a woman in motorsport, Sabine's story is one of laughter, grit, and unrelenting joy behind the wheel. This book traces her extraordinary journey-race by race, turn by turn, smile by smile-charting a career that defied expectations and touched hearts across the world.
Etienne Psaila presents a vivid, fact-based tribute to a woman who never stopped racing, even in the face of illness, and who remains an icon of skill, spirit, and generosity. Sabine Schmitz: Queen of the 'Ring is the definitive biography of a motorsport legend and a human being of rare power and presence.
