Awesome

43 dead basically, just over 10 seconds per 100. Incredible really, such stamina

He said he wanted to break 43 second barrier.....

Well..he'll just have to settle for gold then.

I had the idea that lip microphones were seriously old school but spotted the broadcasters snuggling up to them in a shot where the cameras were expected to be on the track event.

that's some fascinating information mate

That's one attractive podium.

Could have got evens on Niekerk.

If you know you could run 43s, surely you'd back yourself to win?

They're used for pretty much most commentary still.

Here we are...100m final. Epic
