For so many people Murray Walker will always be the voice of Formula 1. With a 52-year-long TV commentary career behind him, Walker is ingrained in the fabric of British motorsport.

For 23 of those years, he guided fans through the intricacies of Grand Prix racing with his inimitable enthusiasm alongside a host of co-commentators.

In this brief interview, Murray talks about the Goodwood Revival and a few other bits.

Walker is perhaps best known for his 'Murrayisms'; amusing verbal slip-ups that occurred during his commentary that motorsport fans recall fondly even to this day.

Bursting with so much excitement, such mistakes were unavoidable and became part of Walker's long-standing appeal.

Here are some of Murray's best quotes

"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"
