Usain Bolt collected his 11th World Championships gold medal as Jamaica won the 4x100m relay in Beijing, as Great Britain failed to finish.<\/p>\n
Bolt anchored Jamaica to victory as they finished in a world leading time of 37.36 seconds.<\/p>\n
GB were third going into the final changeover but James Ellington did not get the baton to anchor Chijindu Ujah.<\/p>\n
The USA finished second but were disqualified, meaning China were promoted to silver and Canada bronze.<\/p>\n
It was Bolt’s third gold of the championships after victories in the 100m and 200m.<\/p>\n
The Jamaicans completed a sweep of the sprint relays with the women, anchored by 100m champion Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, also winning.<\/p>\n
Great Britain’s women’s relay team of Asha Philip, Dina Asher-Smith, Jodie Williams and Desiree Henry set a new national record of 42.10secs as they finished fifth.<\/p>\n
