More changeover woe for Britain

Great Britain’s sprint relay woes continued last night as another baton changeover mistake cost them a place in the 4x100 metres final at the Olympic Stadium.

The host nation were disqualified when anchor leg runner Adam Gemili set off too early as he was about to take the baton from Danny Talbot.

The 18-year-old slowed down dramatically, but the changeover still occurred outside the designated area.
