"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."
"I can't imagine what kind of problem Senna has. I imagine it must be some sort of grip problem."
"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 fifth."
"He is shedding buckets of adrenaline in that car."
"It's raining and the track is wet."
"Only a few more laps to go and then the action will begin, unless this is the action, which it is."
"So, Bernie (Ecclestone), in the 17 years since you bought McLaren, which of your many achievements do you think was the most memorable?" Ecclestone: "Well, I don't remember buying McLaren." (He once owned Brabham).

the answer should be pretty easy for JW members, but it's a entertaining read.

dont' have a clue who said any of those things, but he sounds about as stupid as John Madden. He's a former football coach who does announing for FOX i think during NFL coverage, and some of the stuff he says is even dumber than those quotes above.

Murray Walkers definately a legend, his mistakes were part of his commentary and his personality: part of what made him probably the greatest F1 commentator
