Murray Walker diagnosed with cancer

Legendary Formula 1 commentator Murray Walker has been diagnosed with cancer. The 89-year-old said he had a form of lymphatic system cancer, which was diagnosed during tests after a fall in which he broke his pelvis last month. 'They've caught it incredibly early. It's treatable, the doctors say my condition is mild and I'm very hopeful,' Walker said. Walker is to have a programme of chemotherapy over the next few months in an attempt to cure the disease. He has cancelled his plans to attend the British Grand Prix over the weekend of 28-30 June. Also related to this story
