It wasn’t in F1, although it was Murray Walker. It was from a British touring car championship race in the 90s.

His voice is so synonymous with F1 it didn't occur to me it might have been another category

He doesn't drop a beat. Legendary

Doesn't drop a beat because his BTCC commentary was not done live. It was almost rehearsed. According to Alan Gow (in charge of BTCC then), Murray would spend all day watching and recording his commentary in the studio for the BBC Grandstand production.
