In a telling race of their fitness levels, Asafa Powell ran 9.88 for second, as Tyson Gay ran 9.77, legal wind, to tie his American record of July 2008. Gay will run the 200 meters in Aviva London and Usain Bolt will run the 100 meters in the Aviva London Grand Prix. That means that Berlin will be the meeting of the sprint titans!
