Didn't he start out as a 400m runner?
Yeah he did and a lot of coaches and a few people around Bolt's camp supposedly want him to return to 400m. His PB is 45.28 from 9 years ago but his top end speed should allow him to do something in the 400m, Van Niekerk started out a 100m & 200m runner, sub 10 and sub 20 seconds for each and now holds the world record.

curious how the Brits got DQ'd so of all teams Brazil could make the final...
Seems these isles have borne most of the brunt of the corruption in this tournament, with the Irish being screwed continually in the boxing.

GB could become the first team in the history of the Olympics to surpass the total of medals in the games after the one they hosted if they can beat the 2012 total of 65 medals.

Great race between the two GB girls sprinting down the finishing straight in the Triathlon in the battle for bronze! Three seconds between them.

I don't know if anyone watched the heat for the 200m mens, but Gatlin was so unprofessional and stupid, he jogged the last fifteen metres and was looking around, he should have been in that final. Didn't help when he fecked up in the 4x100m sprint relay either.
The biggest surprise was the Japanese finishing second in the 4x100m, they raced brilliantly. I thought they might be disqualified for stepping on the line, but they got let off the hook a bit
