    This is 6 years after Murray retired from commentary. What a brilliant grid walk and what a Pro ❤

    What a legend. 4:15 Also his interaction with Ron Dennis gives me chills, saying if Lewis can survive the opening lap, he'll be fine the rest of the way, and knowing what he did in the opening lap... it is truly incredible.

    I don't even like Formula 1 or any motor racing but Murray Walker's passion and his child like emphusiasm had a way of convincing me that I did. The man could make something mundane like a tyre change seem like the moon landing.

    • @thehandleiwantedwasntavailable
      @thehandleiwantedwasntavailable 2 ปีที่แล้ว +34

      It’s because Martin is a smart ass whereas Murray just wanted to ask some pretty obvious questions. You’ll also notice how Murray greases people’s ego. Martin doesn’t really do that.

    • @Mikeb1001
      @Mikeb1001 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +22

      It’s because the people on the grid were motor racing people. They were there for the cars and the racing. Liberty have turned it into a circus with people who are there for self promotion rather than motor racing

    • @ZippyZapBike
      @ZippyZapBike 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It's a one off interview with a motor racing legend, which might of been his last, so makes sense to talk to him and get the sponsors airtime. Likewise for nearly all of them he was their voice of F1 growing up.
