"I´m very happy with the race. It wasn´t easy to maintain the form after the Olympics but to be able to participate in the Diamond League kept me motivated. Today I just wanted to win and to run 1.43, which I did. The other competitors also had run a fast time this year and I´m very happy to have won the race."
...
* Michael Cherry signe une belle victoire et surtout un chrono de choix avec un 44'03 pour boucler son 400m.
"I am very happy with my win and a good personal best of 44.03. It felt so good to race here. The crowd was amazing, the weather was nice, I had good competition here. And also, getting that meeting record here in Brussels. I still have a few races to go so no vacation for me yet, I still have to focus and try to be better each time."

...
* Mile dames : La double championne olympique Sifan Hassan possède encore des réserves et s'impose avec un énorme chrono de 4'14"74, record du meeting. MPM 2021
"I´am really happy with the time. After Tokyo I was so tired so I just wanted to run the short distance. My goal was to run fast here tonight and that is what I did. It is a beautiful time. No I was not thinking about the world record, although I knew I was on world record pace in the beginning.
But in the middle, it slowed down a bit. It does not matter. Like I said, I am happy with the time and meeting record, I am not running any long distances anymore this year. In Zurich I will run the 1500m."
...
* Fred Kerley (USA) se montre le plus rapide sur 100m, il s'impose en 9'94, vent nul.
"I'm happy with the win, but I'm not satisfied with my race. I didn't execute the race how I wanted. That gives me working points because I always want to be better. At the Olympics I took the silver medal after Jacobs.
People say that his win was a surprise, but everybody works so hard to be the best and to be ready for the championships, so there are no surprises. Anything can happen at a championship and the final in Tokio was Jacob's moment.
I'm very happy with the silver medal I won because it makes me one of the fastest sprinters in the world. After the Olympics I kept working and I always stay motivated untill the last race of the season. 9.94 is a nice way to finish the season."
...
* France Niyonsaba (BUR) continue sur sa lancée et remporte le 5000m en 14'25"34, record national
* Christine MBoma continue de briller sur 200m avec une victoire acquise en 21'84
"I was really excited to run here in Brussels. It was my first Diamond League experience and to be able to win in such a strong field is great. It has been a very tough and busy season with the Olympics and the World junior championships, but I'm still in good shape. I ran almost a personal best today, so that pleases me. I still have one race to go in Zurich and after that I will take some rest. Currently I'm focussing on the 200m, but I hope in future also to get faster at the 400m."

* 48'23 pour le 3e des JO, sur 400m haies, Alison Dos Santos (BRE) qui s'offre ce soir un succès logique.
