Very sad news. I'm not old enough to have watched any of his commentary live but he is still the voice of F1.

Sad to hear of the passing of Murray Walker. Iconic. My favourite race, ever, by far. Sad to hear, his voice was the soundtrack to so many occasions for a young, car obsessed, motor racing fanatic like me in the 80s/90s. He always seemed like a genuinely decent man and his autobiography was a fantastic read. |

I actually shed a tear. My Murray moment was seeing him on "This Is Your Life" and seeing how emotional he was when his mother came on.
However, I will always remember him poking Mansel on his bump!!!

Watch this, find a quote to post but keep watching and you'll soon find another making you laugh. He was an extremely fallible and excitable waggy tail puppy who was so distinctive that I'm sure must have been like Marmite. Yet, I've never heard anyone say anything negative about him. Watching racing changed for me, when he retired. |

Absolute legend and so sad to hear of his passing, growing up I had a VHS compilation of his various gaffes, races he commentated on etc. must try to find it, a couple of clips I do remember that seem to have found their way onto youtube was when he drove a Mclaren F1 car at Silverstone and got a ride in an Audi A4 touring car round Bathurst
