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 duhk · Posted

      I like the show more options. The only problem with it is that it's not always in a consistent spot in the menu. If the copy/paste/cut, happens to show on top, then more option is the last in the menu. But if copy/paste/cut happens to show on the bottom, then more options is before the copy/paste/cut. But I do like the more options because it hides the stuff that I rarely use. But I would like to choose what it is or isn't hiding. That would make it better.

      I wonder if "put it back the way it was for decades" ever crossed their minds? 🤣

      Rescind the stupid "Show more options" in context menus and just give us the full menu instead of adding more steps to get to what we want. The "simpler by default" makes me think they'll go in the opposite direction. Every context menu should have a configure button so you can pick and choose what options should be shown, I know you can do that with some registry fu but that shouldn't be required.

      This is why competition must exist. Finally, pressure is mounting on Microsoft to move in the right direction.

      Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable by Taras Buria Five years ago, Windows 11 introduced redesigned context menus, offering users a simpler, more modern design. However, customers quickly discovered that the new menus leave a lot to be desired. Many are unhappy with performance (they are really slow), while others dislike the double-layed design, where many options are hidden behind the "Show more options" button. In addition, over the years, menus became cluttered and overloaded. While Microsoft has already fixed plenty of pain points across Windows 11, context menus remain mostly unchanged. Fortunately, Microsoft is finally listening. Marcus Ash, Design and Research Lead for Windows at Microsoft, responded to a tweet on X, confirming that the company is working on fixing Windows 11's context menus. Reworked context menus are supposed to be faster, simpler by default, and "configurable to what you use most." What the latter means is unknown, just like whether Microsoft plans to keep the classic menu alongside the modern one, but according to Marcus, the wait should finally be over soon, as he promised to "share our approach soon." Improved context menus will most likely appear first in Windows 11 preview builds in the Experimental Channel. While we wait for Microsoft to release them, you can try fixing context menus on your PC with a simple tool called Windows 11 Context Menu Manager. It lets you disable entries you do not need, not only cleaning up context menus, but also making them significantly faster. Microsoft has already improved Windows 11's Start menu and taskbar, so hopefully it will address user criticism of the context menu as well. Stay tuned for new Windows 11 preview builds, which usually arrive every Friday.
