As Britain’s quartet celebrated a shock gold medal, the Jamaican Yohan Blake, who passed the baton to Bolt, said he was furious at what had happened. “Usain was really cold. In fact Usain said to me: ‘Yohan, I think this is crazy. Forty minutes and two medal presentations before our run.’“We keep warming up and waiting, then warming up and waiting. Britain’s men set a national record of 37.47sec to take gold, with the United States second in 37.52 and Japan third in 38.04.
