ATHLETICS: Former 100m world record holder Asafa Powell and the world’s fastest man of 2010, Tyson Gay, will go head-to-head at the Aviva London Grand Prix on 5-6 August after they do battle at the Aviva Birmingham Grand Prix on 10 July. “I have only run in Birmingham once before, but if it is like London I know there will be a lot of Jamaican fans coming to support us. It’s because of this support that running in the UK always feels like being at home,” said Powell.
