Formula One’s legendary voice is back – at the age of 83.
Murray Walker is to commentate for BBC Radio Five Live from the European Grand Prix in Germany on 22 July. It will be his first UK commentary since his retirement in 2001.
In an exclusive one-off for Five Live, Murray will also commentate on the qualifying session for the race on Saturday 21 July. He replaces David Croft, whose baby is due that weekend.
Murray will also host a special Formula One edition of the Five Live 606 phone-in, live from the Nurburgring at 6pm – 7pm on Saturday 21 July. Listeners can call or text in their questions and comments.
Go for it Murray, and drop in a few of your classic lines please, just for us…
