"That was fabulous, that's the best corner I've ever done in my life! And I only did 50% of it!" Enthusiastic as a 6yo boy who just had his new toy. I am going to miss you Murray
What a trio of legends, Murray Walker, Damon Hill and that incredible Honda NSX all brought together for one great drive around a great racing circuit too!😁👍
If you're the son of a motorcycling world champion, drive a tank in WW2, race bikes yourself and spend the rest of your life commentating on motorsport, then you're not going to be a slouch behind the wheel.
I watched them film this live. I stood on a corner with a union jack about half way round the track and managed to get a wave from Damon... Can't see it on the footage but I remember they did a few laps. I think it was on a Thursday if I remember rightly, could have been a Friday, obviously it was a while ago now.
@@Alliwantedwasapepsi yes that does make sense. It was an epic race to watch live, best of all the races I have been to, but gutted when coulthard gave up his lead.
Murray looked like he could have a got a decent lap time. Quick, provides his own commentary and still conducted an interview on a track he had never been round!
There will never ever be another Murray Walker. The fact that a commentator was one of Motorsports biggest stars says everything. Read his autobiography, fascinating and wonderful life he led. Wasn’t all just motor racing.
This video is exactly what I needed to get me into the weekend. Hearing Damon days “Umm... brakes... a bit, I think... Murray!” was a breath of fresh air, haha!
Good ol' Murray....I (We) miss your commentary... It may not have always been very technical but that didn't matter for you had just the right kind of enthusiasum...
Yeah I think Murray was actually a kind of father figure to Damon. Knew him as a boy and obviously saw what happened to his father which must have been traumatic for Damon. I’ve never read much about their relationship but I get the impression he always followed him closely and looked out for him as Damon was growing up.
@@Drenwickification Yes, from what I know of him, he indeed was, he talked of a “soft spot” for Damon and was probably why he had a “lump in his throat” when he won the championship in 1996. He seemed like a father figure to many of the British drivers, his interview with Jenson Button was like a father catching up to see how his son was doing!
The thing that surprises me is that Damon isn't a better passenger than he seems to be here. My "riding" ability depends on how much confidence I have in the driver. Damon knows Murray very well, so it's puzzling.
I know what you mean but it could also be because there were lots of people on the track so he was just concerned about that. And even despite Murray's motorsport background of having competed himself on motorbikes, he was still quite old here.

Murray Walker in an NSX is legendary

well said
Kinda what I meant in my comment above.
He didn't just _drive_ a tank, he was the tank _commander._
I know I'm kind of off topic but does anybody know a good website to watch new movies online ?
@Dwayne Messiah I use flixzone. Just search on google for it =)

Friday would have had practise and Hill remarks that he wasn't allowed to drive on it yet, so probably Thursday.

This is so good. Here after sadly hearing of Murrays passing. RIP.
Murray. You were the soundtrack to my youth. Thank you.

Aw man this makes me smile...
In a bright yellow NSX, no less.
The colours of Jordan 😊
@@pokeboi5438 Fitting, isn't it?
“Yeah, brake Murray” 😂
Fantastic clip
Old racers never forget their lines.... RIP Murray
What a brilliant piece. Rest easy Murray. You will be very much missed. x
I'm so young to have watched Murray in his commentary days but what a legend he was. Watching this made me so happy, RIP.
There will never ever be another Murray Walker. The fact that a commentator was one of Motorsports biggest stars says everything.
Read his autobiography, fascinating and wonderful life he led. Wasn’t all just motor racing.
I guess I'm not the only one when I say "I've been missing Murray for years..."
Love this. Cool they let him use an NSX too
“Don’t hit the marshall there...”
Top tip from Damon Hill 😃👍
My favourite sports commentator in my favourite car. What a dream!
RIP Murray Walker 1923-2021
Legend 👍

Yeah Murray Walker will be sadly missed by millions of racing fans around the world
I really miss Murray Walker brilliant man and commentator
Good ol' Murray....I (We) miss your commentary...
It may not have always been very technical but that didn't matter for you had just the right kind of enthusiasum...
That NSX looks gorgeous in yellow
Wow he was an incredibly competent driver
You can see why Damon is such a great commentator today
:-) Love these
His eminence, Muddly Talker showing DH the way its done! 😎😎😎
Very smooth and his driving wasn't bad either
Murray, as usual, sounds like his pants are on fire. 😂 We miss you, Murray! ❤
NSX Jordan 😍
How I feel when other people are driving 😲
98 spoilt Murray, driving an NSX a ride in a 2 seater mclaren and a win for Damon
Hill was making sure Murray didn't crash
Going a little too fast there Murray! Lol
Murray Walker you bloody legend don't worry about the Marshals they will get out of the way lol
Like a father and son 😂

Damon has two father,murray and graham
@@eriksantoso1741 make that three. Don't forget George Harrison who funded his early career.
I bet all the Keiths, Daves and Grahams loved watching this back in the day.

When you're F1 world champion you're entitled to be less than confident in any other driver.
0 deslike there u have it
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The question is: DID HE WEAR MOCCASINS?
