Jamaican Nationals

After this race by Bolt, I think a new WR is in order this season. He looked too easy. I think he was trying not to insult Asafa. With 6 weeks to go before WC, the guy is already in legal 9.7 shape. I firmly believe that he can go 9.5+ this year.

I agree, this race is almost exact the same as his trials last year,

i think The Atheist will be bragging big time come Berlin lol, since he's posted several times about bolts potential for this year

Here is a better video of the mens 100m

I just watched that. Bolt is toying with the sprinting World. After his 19.58 and his 100 success at the US Champs I thought Gay might be back in the mix. He is....for silver. Gold belongs to a healthy Bolt as long as he wants it.

With the loss yesterday in a race where he has clocked sub-10, Powell's winning percentage dropped to 83% (43 wins, 9 losses) in races he's won and clocked sub-10,00 -- a statistic which does include some heats.

It's like deja vu, with even the wind being almost exactly the same ... last year Bolt/Asafa/Frater went 9.85, 9.97, 10.04 with a -0.1 wind, this year it's 9.86, 9.97, 10.02 with a -0.2 wind.

I guess you meant 9.97

Yeah, that was a typo ... I fixed it.

Fraser and Veronica are in the same semi finals today in the womens 200m.
Kerron in the 2nd semi finals.

Final later today will be a cracker.

Look for the first sub 22 of the season.

[Gordon18]

I find it odd that Bolt is trying to cast Tyson Gay as a 200 meter runner when people used to say that he was too tall to run the 100.

he prolly just thinks tyson is better at 200m than he is at 100m

Michael Frater shocked me. :shock:

He's so close to the top two, and it's a negative wind. That was worth a 9'8 and as far as I know he has only barely broken 10 seconds once in his life.

To me, he was more impressive than the american top 3. So, Jamaica may well end up with 3 of the top 4 in Berlin?

American top three :shock:, pinch yourself, cuz your're day dreaming.

That wasn't even worth a sub-10. The wind was -0.2, not -2.0.

He ran sub-10 twice last year.

Twice last year, twice in his career. Sub 10, sub 9'9 with a +1/+2 wind.

In the last few meters, Bolt held his hand up to his mouth seeming suggesting a " Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

No. He was blowing the smoke away from his pistols. He is truly a clown. Just what track needs.

One love.
