Him and James Hunt were great sparring partners and remember the day Senna died, Murray was in bits.......
A real gent also apparently, very sad |

Stole from elsewhere but remember most of these.........
"There's nothing wrong with the car except it's on fire" "With half the race gone there is half the race to go" "I imagine the conditions in those cars are totally unimaginable" "Either that car is stationary or it's on the move" "Do my eyes deceive me or is Senna's car sounding a bit rough?" "And the first five places are filled with five different cars" "And this is the third-placed car about to lap the second-placed car" "The battle is well and truly on if it wasn't on before, and it certainly was" "Two laps to go, then the action will begin. Unless this is the action, which it is" "I'm going for first" (Explaining away a British Touring car driver putting up his middle finger) Murray: "There's a firey glow coming from the back of the Ferrari!" - James Hunt: "No Murray, that's his rear safety light" "Let's watch this typical Formula Ford start!" (instead they promptly all ran into each other) "It's a sad ending, albeit a happy one, here at Montreal for today's Grand Prix" "Andrea de Cesaris, the man who has won more grand prix than anyone else without actually winning one" "Unless I'm very much mistaken... I am very much mistaken!" "And now excuse me while I interrupt myself!" "The young Ralf Schumacher has been upstaged by teenager Jenson Button, who is 20" "It would have been Senna's third win in a row if he'd won the two before" "I'm ready to stop my start watch" "The lead car is unique, except for the one behind it which is identical." |

RIP
If you've not read it, it's worth checking out his autobiography - he had a very interesting life both in/out of motorsport, it's a cracking read: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Unless-Very-Much-...007126972/ |

I’ll always think of watching F1 with him commentating. Everyone else was comparatively anonymous.
RIP. |
