Is Blake worth a little more now? Certainly looked like a man trying to prove a point.

Ties Tyson Gay for 2nd fastest man all-time.

Re: 2012 Lausanne DL M-100m (Non DL)

Intrinsically, that 9,69 (-0,1) is the fastest 100m post-championship time ever recorded (faster than Gay's 9,69 (+2,0)).

OY! Nice one. What are the chances he can get the WR next year? And will Tyson Gay get back into the low-9.7s? Clearly he is still in his comeback phase. 2013 will be intriguing, indeed.

Where does it rank all time adjusted for wind?

Beastly!!! More when this meet is over.

Blake stated to the TV interviewer (BBC 3) that he would like to race Bolt week-in and week-out, but financial constraints prevent this. He really looks forward to their match-ups.

9.68 for wind but for wind and altitude it's 9.70

The nerve of Birmingham of only wanting to pay the Beast 40G. He more than proved his worth today.
