    I missed last weeks race due to a hangover so I had to resort to downloading the Grand Prix. I was going to download the ITV coverage but then I saw that Channel 10 (in Austrailia) had Murray Walker commentating throughout the weekend.

    I must say that I was happy to hear his voice back again. He sounds a bit older alright but all his classical phrases were being as overused as usual. But that's what makes it great

    "Anyone who says F1 is boring must be out of their TINY TINY minds"

    Did anyone else catch this footage?

    Also I'm not sure if this is a season long deal he has or just a one off!

    It appears that Network 10 only had the rights to cover that one race so Murray only dusted off his mic for this one special occassion. Their coverage was spectacular though with them showing all 4 support races in full as well as qualifying, practice and race for F1.

    Murray is working for Honda at a few races this year, and the C10 coverage is sponsored by Honda.
    Normally Aussie coverage is competely **** though.
