Here’s a front row view of the Rome Golden Gala Press Conference with Kim Collins, Christophe Lemaitre, Asafa Powell, Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce.

Of course, the obvious questions all centered around Usain Bolt.

During the press conference, I felt sorry for Shelly-Ann as no one was asking questions to her.  Luckily, the organizers caught on and decided to make everyone answer the same questions.

The press conference does get tricky as it was held in 3 languages.. Italian , English and French (for Lemaitre Q&A).  Luckily, I speak all 3 languages!  I think the translator did an excellent job.

The video is as-is.  I didn’t have time to enhance the audio, nor add any fancy graphics and the sound quality is half decent.  I just recorded and uploaded it.    As well, you’ll have to deal with the still-photo photographers at the beginning.
