    A quick round-up on some of the field events that may have been lost in the chaos of those results.

    Laura Muir rarely gets it wrong now - the maturity she has shown over the years since Glasgow 2014 has been very impressive.

    She is able to continually and consistently get her tactics right, and that's what great performers are able to do.

  5. 'Funding cannot be based on potential forever'published at 16:49 British Summer Time 20 July 2019

    Four-time Olympic gold medallist athlete on BBC TV

    "He looked great today, but he has only showed potential so far in his career. We were so excited by what he showed at London 2012, but he has not delivered on that in the 100m since then.

    If you only have limited funding you have to choose how best to allocate it and potential cannot be the basis for your funding continuing for five, six, seven seasons. I'm not sure Adam understands that."

    Adam Gemili: "That run of 10.04 is the fastest time I have run in a long time so it is moving in the right direction.

    On the downgrading of his funding to that of a relay athlete: "It is someone's opinion. It is nice to prove people wrong and get in the final."

    Fraser-Pryce will be furious with her team-mates because their changes were disastrous and she ended up having to chase so hard.

    What a brilliant performance - and a great race for the crowd!

  11. Fraser-Pryce on firepublished at 16:31 British Summer Time 20 July 2019

    That time of 42.30 seconds for Great Britain's quartet will likely qualify them for Doha.

    But that last leg from Fraser-Pryce.

    Here she is giving up 15 metres to Daryll Neita....

    Shelly Fraser

    ...here she is winning by a nose.

    Women's 4x100m relay

    The last event on the track is a 4x100m relay.

    No Dina Asher-Smith for Great Britain. Instead Ashleigh Nelson, Imani-Lara Lansiquot, Bianca Williams and Daryll Neita are on duty.

    Jamaica with Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce and Elaine Thompson look ominous.

    That was a phenomenal race from Jonnie. It was a good solid run all the way through and he'll be really happy with that.

    It's a long way until the Championships so he will improve on this. He's worked hard and showed concentration.

    Jonnie Peacock: "It is OK. People have run faster this year. Training has been going really well. My start was atrocious. I am going to be told off by both coaches for that. I don't look forward to that conversation. It is great to be back in front of this crowd."

    Jonnie Peacock is the winner with a searing 10.70 second run.

    He was matched over the first 60m by fellow Briton Ola Abidogun, but then the afterburners come on to power him home.

    Abidogun is second in 11.05 seconds.

    It might be Britain's James Arnott who triggered the false start alarm.

    But he escapes censure.

    We settle once more.

    T44/47/64 100m

    Jonnie Peacock is back in the game and targetting November’s World Championships in Dubai and the Tokyo Paralympics next summer.

    “Taking that mental break was a big thing,” he said. “That real desire is back – the hunger, I guess, and I can’t see it going any time soon."

    US rival Richard Browne was supposed to be in the field as well, but the American failed to make his flight over.
