But he hasn’t ruled out the 4x400m relay as well. “I always see how I come out of the 200m before I decide, like if I’m tired etc,” said Bolt. “If I feel up to it, why not? For my country I would always do what is necessary.

“It all depends what is needed from me because at the end of the day it is about the team. “However, there are limits and the individual 400m no chance,” he added.
