Name a corner of the Nürburgring Nordschleife after Sabine Schmitz

[ehsnils]

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 Nürburgring Nordschleife possesses between 73 and 170 corners, depending on how you count them. Many of which are unnamed.

 

I believe that, like Stefan Bellof, her impact upon the Nürburgring's history (and motorsport) warrants the official naming of a section of the Nordschleife in her honour.

If you agree, I'd ask you to sign this petition and share it with those in our motorsports family.
