Must have been hard for Martin to do this. Respect.

I was standing outside of the main gate at Silverstone after a F1 GP race had ended. I saw someone pointing inside a BMW car, stuck in the traffic, I walked over and saw it was Murray. I put me F1 guide into the sunroof, he pulled out a pen from his pocket and signed the first page. He asked me, if I had, a good time and said what a good race it had been. We chatted for about 5 mins, I thanked him and he drove off. A true gentleman, who had time for everyone.

Can't believe he never got a Knighthood for the world of Motorsport Sir Murray Walker RIP

Now he can go tank racing with James Hunt. Murray has the advantage there.

One of the biggest travesties is that Murray was never made a Sir. He more than deserved it!

Murray is reffeered to as the master of F1 commentery. The reality is he was the master of motorsport commentry I saw him cover F3, F3000, BTCC and Rallycross too and he was excellent in all formulas

When a commentator makes the sport more exciting than the participants. Probably the greatest commentator ever.

Thoughts with his family, he will be and always will be the voice of F1 rest in peace Murray.

"Learning from Murray was like having Pele showing you how to kick a ball." Perfect analogy Martin, and rest easy Murray, no one will ever forget you. 😥❤🙏

Aw man this is awful news. I remember watching F1 with him commentating in the late 80s and its hard to believe he's gone. Rest in Peace Murray x

Never forget when Damon Hill won the title and Murray said, I have to stop because I have a lump in my throat, RIP sir,

This is so sad. He will always be remembered as the voice of Formula 1. Rest in peace, Murray.

I’m not ashamed to say I’ve got a tear in my eye over this news today.

I've always admired Martin's thoughtful and precise manner of speaking and it's no different here speaking about the loss of a friend... Perfectly judged

People saying that he deserved a Sir title. The ones who cared, already called him Sir Murray Walker, he was Formula 1.

The voice, heart and soul of F1. RIP ❤️

I can picture and hear in my head, Murray commentating on Senna, Fangio, Ascari, Hill, Clark, Moss and the rest of the greats racing around on the great f1 track in the sky, Thank you again Mr Walker

Tonight Murray there’s many people who have to stop as they have a lump in there throats,you really were an exceptional commentator and person and you gave a child a love of motorsport which will remain with me forever,it was a privilege to listen to you. Rest in peace Murray

A much better way of dealing with death, a tribute and celebration of the privilege of life. Well done Martin. RIP Murray.

RIP Murray. Would always look forward to hear his famous 'And its Go, Go, Go!' before every race.

Martin once said Murray was like a Father to him. This must have been a tough interview. Respect. God Bless you Murray 🏍you brought our beloved sport to life🏎👍

I worked at McLaren for 3 years in Woking. I met racing drivers and worked with Ron Dennis as well as seeing celebrities tour the factory when their cars were being built... But I was never as star struck as when Murray came over to talk. What enthusiasm and just the nicest bloke. Delighted that his legacy lives on.

Sad news, RIP Murray, is commenting was very special to watching motor racing on TV.

He was a great guy I was tarmacing out side brands hatch 34 years ago and he came up and spoke to me he had time for everyone r I p Murray

RIP - He got me totally hyped as a young boy, watching F1 with me dad.

Knew this would hurt Martin, heartbreaking news... what a legend and props to Martin for this! RIP Mr GO GO GO!

A great commentator. His voice helped me fall in love with F1. Such energy and conviction is in short supply. Thanks to him for enriching our entertainment. My thoughts are with his family.

I had the privilege of meeting Murray at a book signing for his autobiography in 2002 at a bookshop where my wife was working. Had a cup of tea & a chat with him “backstage”, lovely man, we spent loads of time chatting about motorbikes. He signed my book ( which I still have), with the words Go! Go! Go! R.I.P Murray.

just spoke to my dad, Murray is such a legend my dad even said “we” grew up with him, him watching from the 70’s and myself from the 90’s. unforgettable voice.

Such a shame, Murray Walker is Formula 1 and always will be. Rest in peace legend, sadly missed 💙

Oh no. What a loss, love Mr. Walker, the best F1 commentator of all time

I loved his commentary as a little kid watching F1 on BBC Television. Farewell to a true gentleman and real hero. I will miss him dearly and wish his family and relatives strength and love for the coming period.

More 'polished' than the Sky rep can ever dream of being. RIP, Murray. You live on in all of us. Thinking of your family at this time.

Murray’s voice was my childhood every Sunday wonderful memories thank you for that my father and I will miss you x

His 'Murray-isms' only drew more affection (since his knowledge & passion were so self-evident)... and so it just added another level of humour to race day. :)) I remember one time he commentated on a replay as if it was happening live.. and Martin just told him... 'That's a replay Murray' ....and my friends & I would always laugh about that...

Murray Walker was so much more than F1, through the 50's and 60's he was the voice of motorcycle sport, from the TT to the Saturday afternoon Grandstand scrambles, there will never be another like him.

" and its go go go" the sound of my childhood.

"And look at that!" The greatest commentator of all time. He was literally F1.

GOD bless you Martin ….

To me, he was THE undisputed voice of Formula One, when I first tuned in at the end of the 90's with Hakkinen/Coulthard Vs Schumacher/Irvine and when teams such as Jordan, Minardi, Tyrrell and Arrows were still around etc, Murray Walker was the 1st voice I ever heard when tuning into Formula 1, he was excited for every single race that he commentated on no matter the occasion and he made the absolute most of each race whether exciting or boring he defined the races, the commentators these days for example David Croft are severely lacking in providing exciting commentary that not only sounds robotic however at the best of times can make you fall asleep. In words that can only be appropriate for who in my opinion was the best commentator of all time for Formula One we can proudly say.. For one last time and it's GO GO GO!! RIP Murray Walker, you can now go have a long overdue catch up with the late James Hunt.

Now Martin is the voice of F1 for the younger generation. Ted is a close second.✌️

Murray Walker, the definition of a legend. RIP and thanks for the memories!!

I think we all have a lump in our throats. 😭

I still hear his voice at the beginning of each race from when I first watched F1 over 20 yrs ago as a child - GO! GO! GO! - it will never go away. RIP Murray!!! Never forgotten!!!

I know you were very close to him Martin, thank you for speaking to us about him ..

I have to say I’m certainly not Martin Brundle biggest fan by means but I have to say I fully respect him for paying such a lovely tribute to quite possibly the greatest sporting commentator the world will ever see R.I.P Sir Murray

Gutted, what a lovely man he was, the first voice most of heard when we got into F1. RIP

Martin, you did more than just share a part of his life, you and Murray were, in my opinion, the best sports commentary duos of all time. Murray with his infectious enthusiasm and you with your level headed insight. I hope you continue to commentate alongside Crofty for many years to come. Farewell Murray and thanks for the fantastic memories.

His enthusiasm was infectious and his voice will live on.....Goodbye to one of the best men in any kind of public eye.

My first experience of motor racing was when, at the age of 13,I was invited by a school friend to go to The Race of Champions F1 race at Brands Hatch in 1967 with him and his father and I have followed Formula One since that time. Murray Walker was the voice of motor racing through my life since that time and hearing of the passing of this great man is like loosing a member of my family. God bless you for all the memories I have of you and for the joy you brought to so many others, RIP Murray.

My Dad and I didn't have many things in common, but what we did have was Formula 1 and Motorsports. Murray Walker was the voice of my youth, keeping my Dad and I gripped to the action. My Dad sadly past away a few years ago at 59, I'd like to think there is another world where the Legends of Formula 1 still race and that my Dad is watching. And I hope Murray Walker will now be there leading the commentary. RIP Murray. And I miss you Dad.

Very nice for him to do. Must have taken a lot to hold in tears. Much respect to Martin

He lived a long, full and successful live, thanks for the memories Murray, rest in peace.

This is the thing about Murray Walker... everytime you think of him... he put the smile on your face

Just heard the news so sad to loose the original and only voice of f1 RIP MURRAY

i was watching the 1987 British gp today on Sky and was wondering how he was doing. this has come as a complete Shock. This Man is More of a Legend than Hamilton ever will be

Sir Murray, the voice of F1!!

Best commentator for motorsport ever !! So enthusiastic and spontaneous ! Indeed sounding very often like someone whose trousers are on fire, but he could not stop himself and expressed his love for the motorsport a 100 % and was very immersive !! I adored his style, even as a Belgian watcher !!!

..I seem to have grown up with his voice on the soundtrack. I remember him commentating on the TV motorcycle scrambling, in the days of Dave Bickers and Jeff Smith..it just seemed like the perfect voice for it! R.I.P.

Oh my!!! The voice of the F1 classics.

He was the voice of F1 so well and for so long, I heard a good 30 yrs of his enthusiasm and style. He was as Big in F1 as any driver ever managed R.I.P. Murray Walker your legend will never die.

Somewhere up there is a grid full the worlds best ex drivers, in the most iconic cars from history, blasting around heaven with Murray Walker and Mike Raymond doing the commentary.

Omg....and its go go go! My childhood is summed up with Murray's commentary. James Hunt and Murray was just the best ever collaboration. Very sad but great memories! Rip Murray!

I loved listening to him commentating F1. RIP Murray Walker 🏁

F1 would not be where it is today if it was not for murry walker true gentleman and legend the voice of f1 should have been sir murry walker rip my friend

Watching this again recently - I think this might be one of the most lovely tributes I've ever heard given after the death of someone. Given with such genuine warmth of someone who clearly really knew him. It speaks volumes of Martin that he took the time to visit Old Murray in a care home. His comment about Murray not wanting to bore Martin with his ailments, but even at that point, wanting to chat about this passion with his old mate is just such a lovely memory. And Martin's simple reference that he's "gone up to heaven" - made me tear up a bit. Martin doesn't strike me as the sentimental type, so the child-like (in a good way) simplicity of that thought was incredibly powerful.

The news itself was sad enough but the tributes have me crying. Rest in peace Murray.

It was our privilege to have listened to him

What an absolute legend of motorsport and broadcasting . Even through all his mistakes us F1 fans still loved Murray for his enthusiam . My thoughts are with his family and friends at this sad time.

A true gentleman he will be sadly missed. His F1 commentary was always entertaining RIP mr motor sport.

RIP Murry Walker I have no doubt you will be looking down on every single race....it was a privilege to listen to you.

Murray's love of sport was so evident. It was returned by the sport and the fans. RIP

Whether he wanted it or not, or felt he deserved it or not, we know he did and he always was and will always be a Sir to me.

I had Murray crying on my shoulder after the James Hunt tribute at the Autosport awards 1993 and he was so nice and really emotional..one of a kind

Murray represents everything I loved about motor racing when I first became an enthusiast in the late 1980s. Martin took over Murray's commentating mantle beautifully and is second only to Murray as the greatest, English-speaking commentator ever (imo). The best partnership though was Murray and James. That was just pure perfect energy and balance between those two. Murray's one of the last of a priceless breed. It's a cliche but so apt with Murray....."they won't make 'em like that again".

I have enjoy Martin Brundle pay tribute to Murry walker he life on a brilliant way to Fan in British and I hope he is remember around the world what great F1 Commentating on F1 races.

A lovely tribute to a lovely man. I know this would have been difficult for you to do this Martin so kudos to you!

Thank you Martin. A lovely tribute to a special man. I met Murray at one of his book signings and in person he was just how you would expect him to be. Thanks for all the wonderful memories Murray.

One legend speaking about another. RIP Murray

Murray was the youngest old man i've ever see. I can't imagine having a mind as sharp as a young man despite living almost a century.

Liked Murray from the 70s when I was a kid watching f1 ,, RIP ! God Bless from northern Ireland UK

And the car upside down is a Toyota!! Genuine legend, rest in peace Sir Murray.

RIP Murray Walker. You got me into F1 as a young boy in 1995 and I loved your brilliant and passionate and sometimes hilarious commentating. I still have Murray's Magic Moments on VHS and your autobiography. You are going to be so missed.

Thank you Murray for the incredible joy you bought to any sport you commentated on. ❤️

Thank you Murray for being brilliant

The fact no one has anything bad to say about him speaks beyond words. The fact he's been "off the scene" for so long but still be *that* respected is incredible. He will be thoroughly, thoroughly missed.

Murray Walker was in so many ways the voice of my childhood, such a memorable personality, RIP. Will never forget his Murrayisms and his “And its go go go”

I was born NZ 1947 started watching formula 1 1960 his voice never forget listen to him about drivers and race Rest In Peace Murray what wonderful Man

RIP Murray Walker,an absolute legend, I can picture the races & here his voice that I watched from when I was a kid to my teens. Murray may no longer be here with us in life but his voice will always live within us for those who remember.

Martin Brundle you have carried his mantle of F1 commenteror for soo long. Long may yourself reign. We will all miss the history of Murray Walker xx

Dear Mr. Walker, I thank you for the life you lived, the passion you embodied, the lessons you subtly taught us all at one stage or another, during our shared infatuation with the greatest sport on the planet . . Formula 1. F1 has been and could only be F1 because of your humble, larger-than-life existence within it. I will always appreciate and forever remember the Great Sir Murray Walker! "Don't be afraid of death; be rather afraid of an unlived life. You don't have to live forever . . . You just have to have lived!" --- : William Shakespear :--- R.I.P Respect, Johnny

Wonderful words Martin, thank you. Murray, for me, you will forever be the voice of F1, the many gaffs, dramas, nail biting finishes, as well as, the unfortunate tragedies. Time for the post race party, I’m sure a glass or two will be raised when you meet up again with Gilles, James, Ayrton, Roland, Jules and Stirling 🙏☺️

R.I.P To the voice of Formula 1 Murray Walker. An absolute legend of the sport. Remember listening to his commentary when I was only a boy of 4 or 5. Deepest Condolences to his family and friends. He will never be forgotten

Murray was part of my growing up and finding the love of F1, he added so much to the atmosphere, every Sunday was a pleasure to watch races with his great voice commentating and the mistakes were all part of it. RIP Murray, Love you lots.

Certainly was a national treasure and a true gent. His enthusiasm and passion was something special. RIP Murray.

Martin is as much a national treasure as the great man himself. How privileged we were to have them both in the commentary box for a few years. RIP Murray. Your voice immediately takes me back to Sunday afternoon, watching the GP with my Dad and loving every second.

I stopped watching F1 when he left , the racing was good sometimes but the comedy that you usually got was priceless .he got so excited that anything could be said at any moment .I loved him like so many there will never be anyone like him again. One of Gods prototypes

Murray Walker one of the very greatest of commentators has passed. For me the ultimate lesson in enthusiasm and passion for what he loved. His voice is etched into my memory banks as it will be by many many others. RIP

RIP Murray. So much passion and energy for F1 and was universally loved by all in the paddock.

Ive loved watching F1 since I was a young boy, I loved every moment of Murray's commentaries. R.I.P . You will be remembered for a very long time.
