Mexico City's up next in five weeks, and it's at (a shorter variant of) the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez; could end up being the best race of the season just because it'll be the only ePrix at a dedicated circuit.

...aaaand I just found out ITV's not showing the Mexico City ePrix live; they're gonna show the snooker World Grand Prix instead on ITV4 and broadcast highlights at 23:15. http://f1broadcasting.co/2016/02/07/itv4-bump-mexico-city-eprix-to-late-night-due-to-snooker-coverage/

 

For ######'s sake, they've got five other channels they could show it on and most of them would only be showing repeats around that time! :angry: They could have easily bumped it to ITV3 or even ITV2 to make room for the snooker. Have to keep our fingers crossed that the FIA will unblock us Brits from watching the YouTube stream.

Well that's annoying.

Though I'm sure there's either a stream on the Formula-E site/youtube, I've certainly streamed it live from somewhere before and in fairly good HD as well.

There's a suggestion on that post the BT Sport might pick it up, so hopefully I can get it there if all else fails.

Yeah, there's an official stream  for people in countries where it isn't on TV: http://www.fiaformulae.com/en/live-streaming.aspx They do stream it on YouTube as well, but I can't find the link for that one. I hope BT Sport do pick it up; they show highlights, so I imagine they'd jump at the chance to show a race live, especially as the FIA do most of the TV work.

Here's the YouTube stream for UK viewers (which should be starting right now for the first practice session)...

 

 

It's also streaming on the official site - US & Canada / Rest of the world - and on DailyMotion

 

It is now being shown live on TV here in the UK, too, just not on Freeview; Virgin Media's set up a dedicated Formula E channel for customers, like Sky Sports F1, which is showing all the sessions over on channel 996, and the race itself is also gonna be live on BT Sport Europe (which is odd, seeing as the race is in South America).

Whoops, forgot to post this...

Lucas di Grassi has been excluded from the result of the Mexico City ePrix, handing victory to Jerome D’Ambrosio.


Di Grassi’s Abt Schaeffler car that he used for the first part of the race, was found to weigh 886.2kg, 1.8kg under the 888kg minimum. Abt has decided not to appeal the decision.


The decision means di Grassi is now 22 points behind Sebastien Buemi, who is promoted to second place. Nico Prost moves up to third, and the Renault e.dams driver also gains two more points for setting the Visa Fastest Lap after D’Ambrosio’s best effort was removed for being set while cutting a chicane. 


Loic Duval remains classified fourth but was handed a 15-second penalty for repeatedly cutting the chicane and then ignoring the black and white flag he was shown for this offence.


Robin Frijns is promoted to fifth, Sam Bird to sixth, Daniel Abt to seventh, Nick Heidfeld to eighth, Stephane Sarrazin to ninth, while Bruno Senna now collects the final point in 10th.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By +samw61 · Posted

      I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.

      I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.

      The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.

      I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
