Murray sounds like one of our announcer over here " He picked up five yards on that loss" (I can't remeber the name but he was a former football player)
Murray was and still is a legend. Knows more about motor racing than anyone else especially F1 but had an awful habit of tripping over his tongue. Here's some more: "He's obviously gone in for a wheel change. I say obviously because I can't see it" "With half the race gone, there is half the race still to go" "Do my eyes deceive me, or is Senna's Lotus sounding rough ?" "Anything happens in Grand Prix racing and it usually does" "Alboreto has dropped back up to fifth place" "As you look at the first four, the significant thing is that Alboreto is 5th" "I can't imagine what kind of problem Senna has. I imagine it must be some sort of grip problem" "He is shedding buckets of adrenalin in that car" "It's raining and the track is wet" "And there's just a few more corners for Nigel Mansell to go to win the Canadian Grand Prix...and...he's going rather slow....HE'S STOPPING HE'S STOPPING!" "and this is the third placed car about to lap the second placed car" "they say clothes maketh the man... the clothes are Niki Lauda's, but the contents are me..." as Murray prepares to take a drive in a F1 car." [He gets a total distance of... oh, 1 foot before he stalls it.] (Apparently, this was the second attempt to film Murray in an F1 McLaren - the first, earlier that day, had gone very well, but for technical reasons couldn't be used!) [During a F1 race, describing how the leader can see the driver following him] "... Mansell can see him in his earphone..." "So Bernie [Ecclestone], in the seventeen years since you bought McLaren, which of your many achievements do you think was the most memorable ?" Bernie Answers, "Well I don't remember buying McLaren." [Bernie Ecclestone used to own the Brabham team]. Murrary: "What's that? There's a BODY on the track!!!" James: "Um, I think that that is a piece of BODY-WORK, from someone's car." Murray: There's a fiery glow coming from the back of the Ferrari James: No Murray, that's his rear safety light "...and there's no damage to the car.....except to the car itself." 'and I interrupt myself to bring you this....' Murray: "And there are flames coming from the back of Prost's car as he enters the swimming pool." James: "Well, that should put them out then."
