Usain Bolt and Jamaica take gold in Relay 2016 olympics Rio

Relay 2016 olympics Rio

Usain Bolt and the Jamaican 4x100m relay team took home gold in the main event of the Olympics track & field slate on Friday night.

 There was no letting up for Usain Bolt as he easily won gold in the 200 metres on a rainy night in Rio, keeping the sprinter on course for an Olympic "treble treble" ahead of the 4 x 100 metres relay. The Jamaican seemed disappointed with his time - 19.78 seconds - the same as in his semi. Canada's Andre de Grasse came second ahead of Christophe Lemaitre of France - who was delighted to take bronze after pipping Britain's Adam Gemili by only thousandths of a second.
