makes me laugh they got rid of him because they said jis age made him forgetfull but it was the excitment of a good race

then replace him with the worlds number 1 dick who makes more mistakes than murray ever did , sometimes you can hear in brundells voice "what a dick "

also meet murray about 5 years back at his book signing and in person hes a real nice bloke to

Rember the old joke that he was jinxed?

Comments like "That's the advantage of being in front, a clear windscreen" as the car goes straight off and into a tyre wall

Absolutely legendary, really miss walker on the GP. Now we have to put up with James Allen and the advert ridden shite coverage from ITV

"oh...oh...he's starting to overtake....he's nearly don....we'll be back after this break"

Was always better on BBC, but they must have not renewed the contract due to the huge audiences that the world swimming championships and indoor athletics must be drawing

"And here comes Damon Hill in the Williams. This car is absolutely unique—except for the one following it, which is identical."

[after a post race interview with Mansell after the Austrian GP 1987] Murray : "How did you get that nasty bumb on your head Nigel?" [Nigel leans forward to show the camera as Murray pokes it with his finger !] Nigel: "OWCH!!"

Agreed, I find it so much better having someone commentate that knows the sport and understands what it is to drive such a car, than a arm chair enthusiast such as Murray.
If they stopped the adverts on ITV then the coverage in general would be so much more better than it ever was on BBC
