Who can forget the classic Top Gear vs The Germans - Minis on the Zolder circuit, particularly the race where
Jeremy Clarkson went head to head with Sabine Schmitz in a mini with the winner being the first one
to put their flag on a Sunbed.

Top Gear vs The Germans Part 2 -Minis on the Zolder circuit

Did The Stig ever go in a head to head race against Sabine, I wonder ?

	No, I’m pretty sure it was Clarkson boasting about how fast he went in the diesel Jag and the camera caught her saying that compared to him. TG was completely scripted but I had the impression that might have been an exception... as they only came back to her the next year. And in all honesty: they didn’t give her „a van“, but a pretty basic Ford transit. I think they were afraid that with the more powerful Sprinter (with 180 hp instead of 120...) or similar she might have actually pulled it off...

Right! Your memory is better than mine.

Sabine Schmitz already has a thread of her own.
