With the two fatstest men in the world and two sub 10 ,Jamaica has an excellent chance to win gold in the Beijing Olympics and some think setting a world record.
These four athletes are Michael Frater, Asafa Powell, Nesta Carter and Usain Bolt. Do you think this is the best running order for the team to reap gold?, if not state your running order.

Well running order for me would be Nesta Carter-Michael Frater-Usain Bolt then to Asafa Powell.
Running order Carter-Powell-Frater-Bolt
My running order would be: Nesta Carter, Micheal Frater, Usain Bolt(best 200m runner–therefore BEST curve runner) and Asafa Powell.
ASAFA, FRATER NESTER AND BOLT. Reason if frater start and him not ahead asafa will panic that him not ahead and all hell break lose
My running orber would be Asafa Powell (for a bullet start), Nesta Carter, Micheal Frater then to Usain Bolt.
My running order would be Asafa, Carter, Frater and Bolt. Asafa panics but he has a quick start, and definitely Bolt to finish
ought to be Frater (100 finalist!), Carter, Bolt (race done), Asafa (did 8.9 split in WC 07 to bring JA from 6th position to 2nd + its his last chance to be golden)
Asafa,Nesta,Usain,Michael. Usain runs the best curve so he should run the
third leg.
The best order based on the athletes performance and their strenghts should be Frater to Carter to Bolt to Powell. Why? Because Frater has a good start and usually starts well on the bend for Jamaica, Carter has increased his speed and will be able to pass off to Bolt with ease, Bolt has tremendous (Superhuman) speed on the bend for a tall man and with Asafa’s Speed and determination to make up for his loss and dissappointment will definately be the best to bring it home for Jamaica on the final leg, also its easier for the slower men to pass off to the faster men without any collisions taking place, and Asafa can possibly handle Bolts Blistering speed.
I think nesta carter should start then hand over to Frater.Usain should run the last curve and then Asafa should finish.
Oh we must not forget that any curve run for Asafa is bad as it always acts up his groin injury.
Frater, nesta, bolt then Asafa to finish..I think that would most definately gaurantee the gold medal as long as there is no problem with the change of baton.
I think Frater,Nesta,Asafa then Bolt to finish,then thats the gold
Carter, frater, Bolt and Asafa. This is going to be another victory. Asafa is going to smash the record in this event. Watch out Jamaica! He’s coming back. Just have alittle faith in him. All is not lost! BRAP! BRAP!
I THINK IT SHOULD BE FRATER, ASAFA, NESTA, BOLT ANKER….. BUT YOU KNOW IT’S JUST JAMAICA TIME RIGHT NOW. BEST OF LUCK GUYS.
FROM MY DAYS OF RUNNING THE GUYS ARE ALWAYS BEHIND ON THE RELAYS BUT NOT THIS TIME AROUND I HAVE NEVER BEEN MORE CONFIDENT IN THEM.
My running order would be Carter, Frater, Bolt and Powell.

Maybe you should take a look at:

Frater, Bolt, Nester, Asafa, is the best running order. Bolt on the back straight would be amazing and the slower runners on the curves handing off to the fastest people
I don’t think Asafa should start or end but be in the middle so that the other athletes can make up the difference if necessary. Frater, Asafa, Nesta, then Bolt or Frater, Asafa, Bolt then Nesta
My running order would be Powell, Frater, Carter, Bolt.
asafa we heard u r at a low. We believe in u and u can do it. so just use your god given talent and run, then let god do the rest .
We (jamaicans) will be proud of you, no matta what.

Asafa, as a country we are blessed beyond the realm of any power that may appear to be against you (us). Your blessings are just as god given as the country that will stand proudly behind you. Show them what you are made of. You have done it before, believe in your self you CAN do it again
ASAFA POWELL, Jamaica love you same way, you still have our support and you still made us proud. I must agree with you Marcus he is truely bless and once he believe in himself more he will indeed rise to the top again.
Love you Asafa
mmmmmm well i feel the running order should be Frater, Powell Carter and Bolt or Frater, carter, bolt and Powell
frater,nester,bolt n powell.Usain said he was practising 3rd baton change.And he said he won’t be participating in the heats,he is going to take the time off to enjoy his birthday.
It ought to be a great Caribbean Final. Trinidad & Tobago also has a great chance in the 4X100m. Best of luck to both teams!
ASAFA BIG UP EVERYTIME. USAIN BOLLLLLLLTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT TO THE WORLD. TEK IT TO DEM IN THE 4X100 M WE KNOW U GOING TO GET THE GOAL AGIN. MICHAEL AND NESTA U LARGE. SHELLY ANN, VERONICA, KERRON, SHERONE, MELANIE AND SHERICA U GIRLS ARE THE BEST. NO LINGER WID THE 4X100 AND 4X400 . BIG UP WE LOVE U ALL TO THE WORLD.
Asafa Orangefield District massive love u,u r our neighbour and we know u can rise to the top again.My running order would be Frater,Bolt, Cater, Powell record breaking performance
I have been following the Olympics and think the relay should be Carter Powell Frater and Bolt.
Whatever running order is going to be, the almighty Jamaican relay team will have at least one staunch supporter in Brussels, Belgium.
GWAN JAMAICA GWAN!!!!!!
I think FRATER, ASAFA, NESTA, BOLT or ASAFA, NESTA, FRATER and BOLT. I know ASAFA is gonig to put out his all in the relay to make up and DION this time around the men are not behind the have inproved a long way. Anywayz Love you all DION the previous and present olypians love always.
I think the order should be ASAFA, NESTA,FRATER and the mighty BOLT should finish the race for the Jamaicans because he is the future of Jamaican new world order in running. he is the greatest runner ever seen.
all the line up is already there but i’ll say powell has to be on the straight not on any of the curve so he could explode and show is true potential WOULD love to c him on the four. peace
JAMAICA…..TO…THE…WORLD
BEST OF LUCK TO THE TEAM.
I’D SAY POWELL, FRATER, CARTER, BOLT. THATS A DYNAMIC LINEUP!!!
HANG ON TO THE BATON NOW!!!
Of course, will win the Gold in this event and set a world record too.
I have no idea what the order should be. I have been worrying about it for a week. Bolt is so tall that it is a potential baton change nightmare! Like Osaka almost was…I still think Asafa is the best finish option as he can chase down people in front – it’s running away from them when they catch up is the problem.
Asafa, we have been praying for you. We heard you were low in spirits. But take heart – every champion has a low season. It’s how you deal with your low that defines you. One day this season of disappointment will end. Just dont give up on yourself because God knows, we wont give up on you.
Blessings my brother. All Jamaica LOVES you!! You led the way for us and we will always be grateful for that…
asafa we love you no matter what just remember u held the world record three times. Keep your head high you reward is coming. All Jamaican in America especially Brooklyn still love and respect you.
mine would be carter,frater,bolt,Powell, even if they r behind on the last change over asafa will not panic remember that in the world championship last year asfa got the baton in fifth place we go second
I know that Jamica is the favourite, but come on, you people are acting just like the americans…..only talking about the Jamicans….what happen to the rest of the caribbean athletes….like Barbados, Trinidad, Grenada,etc. come on my caribbean people let us not get to swell headed.
