Bolt responded to crictics with a blistering season debut at 200 metres and a new track record at the Bislett Games. |
Jamaican star sprinter Usain Bolt rebounded from a rare defeat with a track record at the Bislett Games on Thursday in 200 meters.
Bolt, who lost the 100 meters to American Justin Gatlin by one hundredth of a second in Rome the week before, finished in 19.79 seconds, the best result over 200 meters this season.
Norway's Jaysuma Saidy Ndure was second in a season-best 20.36 seconds, with James Ellington of Britain third in 20.55.
Bolt set the Bislett record by finishing three-hundredths faster than Frank Fredericks of Namibia in 1996.
