In case you have not heard the news, our best ever motorsports commentator Murray Walker has died today aged 97.

I had the good fortune to meet him on a couple of occasions, and he was always the absolute gentleman and great fun to be around.

RiP Murray, and thank you for some wonderful memories in both 2 wheel sport as well as 4.....

A part of all our lives. I still miss hearing his voice when I watch F1. RIP

Very sad, a big character gone, echo what ScottyUK said, commentary just not the same.
RIP. Murray.

Definitely the yardstick by which all other sports commentators should be judged.

A very modest man, what most people didn't know was that he served as a tank commander during the war in Europe.

RIP.
