Just two days after beating Usain Bolt in a 100 meters race, Yohan Blake bested Bolt in a 200 meter sprint during Jamaican Olympic trials on Sunday night (01.07.12).


Blake ran the race in 19.80 seconds, finishing 0.03 seconds ahead of world record holder Bolt.


Blake now looks a legitimate threat to Bolt's Olympic Gold Medal hopes in two events later on this Summer in London. 


Bolt, who is known for his flamboyant displays on the track, embraced his friend and training partner in a bear hug immediately after race.


A somewhat stunned-looking Blake then soaked up his achievement in front of a crowd who can now look forward to having two Jamaican runners well placed for Olympic glory.
