That would be the last time Jamaica would lose a 4x100m final on the track for ten years.

You do know how dominant the USA is in the 4x400 in history and also the USA has won more major 4x100 than any other country including Jamaica in history.The United States men historically dominated this event through the 20th century, winning 15 Olympic gold medals, including 8 in a row and five IAAF world championships. Carl Lewis ran the anchor leg on U.S relay teams that set six world records from 1983 to 1992, including the first team to break 38 seconds. Jamaica has (2) Olympic golds, in history, here is your history lesson for the day, since you wanted to bring up history...lol

Gay was strategiacally placed on the first leg to gain an advantage, with a weaker sprinter in hopes that the final leg would be able to hold the lead if we had one. It worked yet powell did do a fantastic job of pulling in the end. It would be hard to say if they both were on the same leg and received the baton, at the same time what the out come would have been.

People gotta realize, this was Bolt before his prime. He wasn't a 100m runner back then. In fact it was after these worlds that he really started to train his hardest. Back then he was only the 200 in like 19.9. compare that to what he was doing only a year later. And this was when Powell was top dog, well him and Gay anyway.
