Christophe Lemaitre 6.55 60m Semi-Final Leads 2011 European Champs [Videos]

The 60m finals are just several hours away at the 2011 European Athletics Championships in Paris.

With a 3 heat semi final, it’s go hard or go home, especially with the finals the next day.

Christophe Lemaitre 6.55 is looking very good unless Dwain Chambers can bounce back with another 6.42 two years ago.

The 3rd section was a very close race with 0.03 seconds separating 2nd through 7th (Top 2 and next 2 fastest qualify for the finals). Great Britain’s Joel Fearon 6.69 run just narrowly misses the final in the photo finish (see below at the end)
