Very sad. I used to like her on top gear.

 

[T4tomo]

very sad, gone far to young (my age - gulp)

 

[CanucksTraveller]

Oh gosh that's sad... she was too young, that's a real shock.
I'm not a motorsport fan but you do become fans of good people whatever world they move in, and what a truly fabulous person she seemed. So personable, incredibly smart, hugely talented, kind, modest, and very, very funny. She's someone I'd have loved to have met.

 

[matticus]

Very sad, especially at that age But she lived a good life.

 

[Bazzer]

Sad news.
I thought she brought something different to Top Gear.

 

[DCLane]

Very sad news - she always appeared bubbly and full of life. Like @T4tomo the same age as me.

 

[fossyant]

RIP, same age as me too.

That is sad news, she was a very talented driver and breath of fresh air. I wonder how many young women she inspired to take up motorsports..
