http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9CdPAmjEHp0 Here is the video. Once he gets moving, he is quick. Sort of reminds me of Yohan Blake (without the yams).

Yes, and he beat Darrel Brown's record from 2002! http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/athletics/18780238 (It is a shame he did not do this against Dwain Chambers at the UK Championships) He takes small strides, over 47 or so for the 100m, but he takes the strides very quick, producing faster cadence...

Is this the first time CL will run in the UK? I think it is?

I mentioned a bit about this in a previous thread. To summarize, MJ comes across as a bit of a racist. He sits at home watching his favourite Jesse Owens videos from the Berlin Olympics defeating the other white athletes and feels proud about this. He connects it immediately to only slavery. I...

In the UK if you want to be known and remembered, you need to be on the major television networks, like the BBC, ITV and Sky News. In 2010 when CL ran sub 10, NONE of these channels had any coverage on the matter at all. Total disgrace. I do not care if whites are regarded as having a better...

That's right, he needs to run the 100m. With his talent, he would be mad to not at least try. I am not concerned too much if no medal will come about in the 100m, but please, please make the final and stop the all black final happening. Any average person (not a track and field fan) only...

Oh, I hope he runs the 100m at the Olympics. I know he will make the final and quash that stupid "all black" final stereotype thing. Trust me, slower athletes are running the 100m in the Olympics from the UK. CL is the best in Europe and if he does not run the 100m, I will be so upset with him...

Dwain Chambers makes the 100m British Olympic team for 100m even though he did not achieve the 'A' standard this year. I give him credit on achieving it last year and winning the UK Championships this year. But his best this year is 10.25 seconds eye balls out. First round knockout in London...

Michael Johnson should not be making such shows about why blacks dominate sprints. Doing so is off putting to other race types and is down grading other race types from athletics. I have heard and seen all this slavery rubbish before relating to sprints and it can put non blacks off even trying...

It is only more believable because we have got used to seeing Bolt for years running at this high level. I can see Bolt has got natural ability, but the massive improvement from 2007 to 2008 is very suspect. Bolt had a lot of pressure from the media in 2008 after these crazy performances...

He should be called: Yoyam Blake Bolt looks finished to retain this titles. For Bolt to drop off like this so badly may be due to more tighter monitoring and restrictions of his yam intake. He was saying he will be a legend once he runs 9.40 seconds and sub 19 seconds in London. No, I don't...

Yes, Gatlin is a proven cheat. He blames other people for his steriods use and then only gets 4 years, instead of the 8 years or life ban he should have had. Gatlin was bringing his family onto the track at the end of the race. The guy is a dirty cheat. Annoying to see also, because he will...

Yes! I would love to see Christophe get the gold. He looks superb. This is why we need him running 100m in the Olympics!

Christophe looked great! Should be a french gold and silver. Very relaxed at the end, shutting down early and still running 10.14, to which no other British athlete apart from Adam Gemili has run this year. Harry AA was soundly beaten and yet he is twice the size of Lemaitre and can lift...

Great article. CL says he will never leave the Alps, even if Coach Pierre retires. He likes where he lives and I guess he will not be moving to Paris anytime soon.

Gatlin is still most likely taking something. Last year he got beat twice by Christophe in the 100m easily. This year, he jumped up to indoor world champion and now outdoor US champion, running 9.80. So obvious he is back to his old ways and juicing as much as ever. We have Chambers, Gatlin...

Well done Adam! I hope he will take his rightful place in the Olympic team and not sacrifice it for the inferior World Junior Championships like MLF did in the year 2000... Very disappointed that Adam did not win the race. That would have shut Dwain right up for good. I watched and recorded...

Yes, this will be good to watch. Lemaitre has never raced Tyson Gay before. I can not see him beating Tyson just yet though. Christophe has beaten everyone in the world over 100m apart from: 1. Bolt 2. Powell 3. Blake 4. Gay Christophe has had impressive wins over high caliber athletes like...

A white person is like Craig Pickering, Christophe Lemaitre, Borzov, Kenteris, Shivington, etc... Caucasian is not a word I use ever. I am from the UK, not America. In the UK, we use the term "white" to describe white people and "black" to describe black people, etc... I will support Adam, no...

Good that is he running fast, but he is not white. He is of Moroccan Iranian descent. Morocco is located in North Africa.

Adam Gemili is not white. He is of Moroccan Iranian descent. Comparing him with Borzov or Lematire as the next white sprinter is very wrong. Would you think Hicham El Guerrouj is white?
