One of the great personalities of motor racing; made some great gaffes but always seemed to be able to see the humour in his own mistakes. I used to love motor racing years ago but in recent years it has become dull and boring. Many formula one drivers, or Grand Prix drivers as they used to be, were themselves great characters and Murray Walker just fitted in to the scene at the time. There’s never been another commentator like him and I doubt that there will be another.
