Spoiler Free

I use the Spoiler Free page at MotoGP.com as my start page for that site.
That page works fine - it indeed doesn't spoil anything about the races - but the layout is very irritating. The buttons are way too large, so that on a 1920x1080 display (my laptop) you cannot even read the text without scrolling.

This Tampermonkey script resizes the buttons to something useable - see the examples. You could play around with font sizes etc. to optimize it further, but this is good enough for me.

The "I Watch Too Much Racing" blog provides calendars for MotoGP, Formula 1, etc. You can easily import these into Google Calendar, Apple iCal, Microsoft Outlook, etc. Works like a charm and saves a lot of typing and maintenance! :-)

OLD - video quality on Windows

This is OLD info - the video quality is flash-free and very good these days:

Watching MotoGP (using Video Pass) on Windows is far from ideal, to put it mildly. It's sh*t really.
No matter what CPU power, video card, browser or internet speed I threw at it, it kept stuttering and dropping a lot of frames.

Cause is (of course, I should have known) Flash. Check out this info on Reddit on how to force using the (beta) HTML5 player, which is MUCH better:
Video Pass - TamperMonkey Script To Force HTML5 Video And Ditch Flash

Why they would insist on using Flash, which is obsolete and gives you a headache with all those dropped frames, is beyond me.
Even more puzzling is why they don't advertize the fact that they have a solution that actually works (even if it is still called a beta version)... It took quite some Googling to find this; and no mention of this anywhere on the MotoGP site itself. Weird.
