    Looks like, from the url link, that its Sabine Schmitz, the lady from the 'ring that raced with Jeremy on Top Gear.

    Are there different classes of cars running? Looks like the BMWs just drove away from the Porsches. Could be the wet conditions favoring the 50/50 weight distribution of the BMWs. Nice vid.

    Sabine's car is a Cup 997 as driven in the Porsche Supercup, the BMW's and the Porsche in front are specially prepared cars only for the endurance race series at the Nordschleife (called VLN). There are many different classes and cars from the 650bhp Viper GTS-R to a tiny little Ford Fiesta with about 75 or 80hp.


    The car Sabine overtook just before "Brünnchen" is a 996 Cup Porsche driven by Uwe Alzen. Their specially prepared Porsche 996 BiTurbo AWD car was destroyed one race before (in the video it is the 10th and last race of the season) and so he had to go out in their Cup Porsche.

    Really nice video. I also recognize some of the Nurburgring in GT4. Feels great to run through some of it in person!
