i met murray walker, and i was dissapointed. it was at the silverstone classic in 2008, i was 14 then, he was there promoting his new book, and i asked him nicely to sign my ticket, but he said, without a hint of apology, i'm just singing the books. it's a ticket, why not sign it, to hell with his promoters, just money grabbing wankers telling him what not to do, but still, murray should've just done a kind gesture
you are still a boy indeed,you should be mature to accept that situation.. I don't know the exact reason Murray didn't sign your ticket.. I guest it's about contract, He contracted with the book or publisher, if he signend your ticket it will broke his contract/agreement. You should follow and respect rules of many ways and other people when you get mature. And before you ask Murray "Why dont just signed the ticket?" You should ask yourself "Why didn't you just bring the book?"
Murray Walker - the greatest commentator ever, the most infectiously enthusiastic human to have graced this planet, and the first to discover that you can verbally trip over your shoelaces.
Serious question,how has murray walker not got a knighthood? chris hoy wins an olympic gold...knighthood. Murray Walker the voice of motorsport for 50 years...???
0:50, remember that incident with alesi, benetton pit crew had given him the pit sign for 3 laps and he didnt, so ran out of fuel!! good driver though
@tizzard1970 "I am off to work on an oil rig in the Gulf for the next 6 months, without any internet access. Can i just say in advance, Murray Rest in Peace
Legend"
No tv, radio, newspapers, word of mouth on an oil rig ?
that was a barrel of laughs :L also you should have had the one where frentzen gives blundell the finger, its something like "Oooohhhh, that's not very polite Heinz-Harald!"
haha the first one! ROFL! He is a really funny guy. Lots of passion. Or "you can see the body language of the Benneton mechanics that they are ab.. so.. lutly FURIOUS" hahaha he is just great. Fantastic!
I genuinely think that the reason we all think f1 has been so boring for the last 10 years is beacause there has been no Murray Walker. He used to get so excited about the slightest little thing, the passion with which he delivered his commentry was second to none. The mistakes and the occasional not having a clue whats happening made it all the better. Hunt and laterly Brundle were incredibally knowlegeable and always put him right so there was the perfect balance of information and passion
Although he makes mistakes he is also a very perceptive and creative commentator. I remember a btcc race where a wing mirror fell off a car and bounced off the top of the one behind. Murray shouts 'header', you can't buy that kind of greatness as is evident from the current commentators!
Sorry but Muray made mistakes but he absoluetely more than made up for it with his enthusiasm.
Ive seen races where Murray NEVER knows exactly whats happening, with Hunt gently putting him right, and at no point is it boring liek the commentary on BBC these days. Thats not aimed at Brundle by the way, who is excellent and funny, his gridwalks of course are legendary. The current race commentator (Legard?) though seems clueless AND dull, and thats disgraceful really. Tough act to follow though
Murrary Walker is in a completely different league to james allen and Jonathan Legard, granted both know what there talking about, but neither of them are able to voice it to the fans with such, passion, flair and class as Murray did, and humour as well, can't forget that. I do miss having a decent commentary team for the f1, thank god for martin brundle and good races is all i can say, otherwise we would be bored.
Murray Walker is admittedly, like any exceptional broadcaster, a product of their time as much as their undeniable talent. But, to compare eras, there will likely never be one better than Murray's own. I'm glad we had him. The current crop is efficient and sterile but, like hearing Red Bull constantly, you get sick of it pretty quick. Red Bull SUCKS!!!!
"And it's ford escortsfirst second and third. Not surprisingly as they're all escorts in this race" You simply couldn't make it up could you:)
For those of you who don't know why Jean Alesi was in trouble, he had ignored the pit boards telling him to come in for fuel for about three laps. You saw the result...
@pacman599 "the guy" is Bernie Ecclestone. Murray was supposed to say '17 years since buying Brabham', and Bernie said 'I don't remember buying Mclaren'
@pacman599 the guy is Bernie Ecclestone at he says "I dont remember buying McLaren" after Murray says "its some 17 years since you bought McLaren..." =D LOVE MURRAY WALKER!!!!!

It was at Monaco, wasnt there a pile up on lap 1 and the race got red flagged, so that's the drivers running back to the pits in the "F1 marathon" I think Murray described it as. Was hillarious. Not sure what year though mate.
