Its never been quite the same without him. Not the most competent broadcaster, but his passion is something that has been missing for the last 20 years.
RIP .

How very,very  sad.
I was only watching some old BTTC videos last week that he commentated on and thought how much more entertaining he was than the later ones were, I laughed out loud at some of his spontaneous comments.
I read his autobiography several years ago and still have it so will revisit his life story.
Murray was one of , if not the , most enthusiastic motor racing commentators I ever had the pleasure to listen to and I have missed his acerbic narration in recent years.
Another Icon from my life gone.
RIP Murray.

Have you had a lifetime of people punching you on the head etc? Joking apart, it is sobering when you see similar age or younger going.

They should, but they won't. Enough people in F1 who loved him will undoubtedly get together and sort something out  ;)

The only similarity I was comparing was age not lifestyle.
