shareI think the chap you are referring to is Simon Taylor, who is listed as English Race Announcer, or something like that in the credits.
The reason he's not listed as Murray is simply because he isn't playing Murray...he's playing a fictional, generic version of himself. Simon did do some on screen presentation for both the Beeb and ITV back in Murray's day and also did radio commentary for F1. He is still very much involved in motoring and motorsport journalism for magazines.
Even though he's no Murray (but then, who is?) and certainly not as well known as Murray, he is massively respected as a journalist and is a phenomenally knowledgeable chap on not just motorsport, but cars and motoring in general. Infact, even though he's semi retired and works freelance now, if you're a fellow Brit you might be familiar with the highly regarded What Car? consumer magazine and the excellent Classic & Sports Car magazine...they were both started by him.
Hope that helps.

Cheers.
