What I love about Murray is he was like your Dad or Uncle doing commentary in the house. He was so relatable because he was so spontaneous and didn't sound as though he was coached into commentary like others they all have this specific professional way of doing it, but Murray was more himself and genuine. Like me or you. He just felt free to say whatever he wanted however he said it. It was so different from others. He truly is one of a kind.
He was incredibly knowledgeable and loved the sport like no other, his enthusiasm was infectious. It's an Incredibly difficult job to talk for 2 hours non stop, of course he would make occasional blunders, who wouldn't. Legend.

Occasionally he did make prophecies that turned out to be correct. Before the start of the Monaco GP in 96 he stated it was a 75 lap race. Two hours later it would indeed end on the 75th lap
When I was 13, I wrote a letter to him C/O BBC. Thought no more of it until a few weeks later I received a hand written reply from the man himself. Will treasure it forever. I love you Murray. Forever the voice of Formula One
Meanwhile, some thirty-something dude drives well in a circle, gets knighthood for "services in motorsport". You know, he IS a great driver, but what did Murray do in contrast? Nothing? Served in the war, worked in a job and did all of his sports commentary alongside that, starting around 1949? I question the selection process of the royal British crown...
Murray: "I hate to say this, but a lot of people here are really debating whether Ricardo Rosset is Formula One material" Martin: "Well, that's a fairly short debate Murray" ----------Awkward pause--------------- Murray: "End of message. And uh... thrEe minutes to go"
Murray’s greatest quality as commentator was that he never tried to wow anyone with the wealth of knowledge he certainly had, but he had this ability to make it seem as though he was like all of us watching at home shouting at the scream and waving our arms in fanaticism. Truly a legend the sport will never see again
May Murray Walker rest in peace. I never watched a race with him commentating but I think his voice made everyone glued to their televisions. Rest easy
Please for the first race of the season, insert a clip of Murray saying “GO GO GO” to start the Grand Prix or do it for the British GP. If there’s any tribute worthy to honor his legacy, it would be that. It would touch all of us hearing his voice just one last time.
We all miss him. I started watching F1 as a teenager and I got hook with Murray voice and knowledge of the sport. Yes he did have those famous expressions that we will never forget. He was and still is the voice of F1.
He also sounded enthusiastic and genuine, unlike many of todays commentators who either sound like fake hypemachines or like they want to be somewhere else....
@@kenlykkeslett7501 Alex Jacques, Jack Nicholls and even Ben Edwards beg to differ. They're obvs. not Murray-level quality but it'd be very unfair to say that they don't find genuine excitement covering the races.

Not really too fond of Ben Edwards, and Alex can be a bit grating when he is alone (but combined with Davide Valsecchi, who is absolutely awesome actually, works quite well.

So with that said, there are exceptions, but for the most part many of the commentators just lacks that bit of eye catching aura.
and some responded in kind. Senna would talk to him whenever he saw him, even asking him to restart mispronouncing his name. Murray had started pronouncing Ayrton correctly, Senna heard it, and the next time they met he asked Murray to go back to the wrong way because it didn't sound right
The power of Murray Walker is so great, that even tough we know the outcome of these clips, we still get excited to see them. As far as I know there wasn't any commentator like him, and there probably won't be anyone like him.
For those who note how often he would say "this is fantastic" even in negative situations, it used to be used like "incredible" - which literally means "unbelievable". Both are words which can be used in positive or negative circumstances, but often when something unusual happens which can benefit one person whilst being non-benefitial to someone else.
I think people should be able to figure that out but of course, so many of them have to try and turn everything into a joke these days. Memes both help the sport and make the fanbase seem braindead at times lol
My favourite of all his calls. I even used it when at a school sports carnival, I was watching from the sides when suddenly one competitor flipped off another. I said "He means he's going for first." And the teacher for a moment thought that was what he was implying. Before he was removed for unsportsmanlike behaviour.
Some of Murray's greatest moments (not featured here) occurred when a British driver was involved in something. He was the fiercest supporter of all of them. When Schumacher wiped out Hill in 94, you could hear Murray's blood boiling.

The man’s passion was palpable. My favorite instances were when his passion for the moment impeded his will ability to accurately speak, which is something very endearing, human and understandable to us all.

'there's winklehock well down the field' when winklehock was leading by 30+ seconds!
He also said that he hadn't pitted.
He just didn't knew the Spyker masterplan.
"You're right there Murray."
f197 - just a small brush with the concrete wall... that won't slow this driver down!
Playstation!
It’s an Arrows!
Let's not forget that legendary Caddicarus meme...
*Hang on...!*
*Germany.*
This year is Michael Schumacher! YEEEESS! I need a 10 hour version of this, such a pure emotion always makes me smile!
Thank you for waiting for this....you have given one of the most heartfelt tributes I have heard about this amazing man.
Well done sir! 👍👍
"This is the best thing I've seen in 96 years! Which is incredible since I'm only 89!"
- Murray Walker 2012
Murray when someone turns a steering wheel:
"Incredible!"
I have heard this mans voice from I was a small kid, he was like a Formula 1 Uncle that stepped into your living room just to give your Formula 1 Experience that extra boost.
He will be sorely missed!
1:50 what I tell my teacher when I didnt do my homework
Prost crashes Senna in 1989, Murray says: " This is fantastic!"
Senna crashes Prost in 1990, Murray says: "This is amazing!"
The man’s passion was palpable. My favorite instances were when his passion for the moment impeded his will ability to accurately speak, which is something very endearing, human and understandable to us all.
Murray Walker and Martin Brundle, name a more iconic duo. Brilliant. Rest in peace.
It must be said
Nope Murry and James Hunt that was the inconic Duo
He put his heart and soul into every turn of the wheel and lived and loved every single minute of it.
It's all about 4:29 for me, you can hear that heartbreak from Murray as Coulthard hits the wall!
4:30 aaaaaaoooooooo
In 2001, the first Formula One race, I haven't missed a single one since ... your voice lives on forever. rest in peace, legend.
The best Murray commentary moment: "I'm going for fisrt says John Cleland"
"HE'S HIT THE CANADIAN!"
"You're right there, Murray."
Italian GP 1998
" this is magnificent, the lead changes twice in about 400 yards"
Murray Walker was so wonderful. We shall all miss him, but I love to look back at his commentary, having not ever heard it in my youth, because I did not watch Formula One back then, when he was still commentating.
Has no one ever pointed out that you've spelt "Lightning" wrong in your username?
@@neilonaniet Yes, and I've had to say this so many times before, but it was just my idea for an account name, and I'm not really Lightning McQueen! Just an autistic guy who loves the Cars movies, and Formula One, of course!
*literally bad things happening on track*
THIS IS AMAZING!
INCREDIBLE!
That's why we love Murray.
Legend.
Condolences to his family.
the best 12mins of my lifetime!! thanks for the memories Murray!
Unforgettable. The voice of F1 when I grew up.
*someone crashes*
Murray: OH MY GOODNESS
This. Is. Fantastic.
1:23 *insert formula 1 opening themes song
Couldn’t have picked a more appropriate or beautiful moment to finish the video on
Thank you Murray for all those wonderful memories
I could watch this for hours. In fact we all did for years and loved all of it. What a man he was.
