I vaguely seem to remember one from Murray Walker along the lines of: "Well its 10 points for a win, 8 points for the 2nd fastest, 6 points for 3rd fastest right the way down to 1 point for the slowest fastest".

The whole thing is actually mythical, despite bigguy01 claiming that Brian Johnston had prepared it a few years before and saved it for the right moment. The claim that it happened was made in a letter written to Brian Jonston by someone called "Miss Mainbrace". Johnston didn't know himself whether he had really said it or not, but the BBC went through the recordings of the broadcasts from the match in question and couldn't find anything like that. It appears to have simply been a joke by "Miss Mainbrace", although nobody has ever come forward and claimed to be that person or to have written the letter that started the story.
