Hunt wins third gold as Asher-Smith makes history
Amy Hunt won her third gold medal of a potential historic quadruple and Dina Asher-Smith earned a spot in the record books as Great Britain's 4x100m relay stars put on a show at the European Championships.
Britain's new sprint sensation Hunt celebrated her third title in six days, following triumphs in the 100m and 200m, as the GB women's quartet claimed the hosts' second gold medal in a spectacular ending to Saturday's action in Birmingham.
The 24-year-old, who described her team-mates as "superwomen" and a "privilege to race with", will now attempt to become the first athlete to win four gold medals at a single edition in the event's 92-year history when the mixed 4x100m relay takes place on Sunday (approx 20:35 BST).
Team-mate Asher-Smith, meanwhile, achieved her seventh gold at the championships - 10 years after capturing her first.
With that, the 30-year-old matched the record tally also held by Norway’s Jakob Ingebrigtsen and Croatian discus thrower Sandra Elkasevic.
Following her 200m bronze on Thursday, Asher-Smith also equalled Polish sprinter Irena Szewinska's overall record tally of 10 medals at the championships.
In an utterly dominant performance, Imani-Lara Lansiquot completed the job for a GB team which also featured 21-year-old student midwife Success Eduan, crossing the line in 42.05 seconds - more than a second clear of fellow medallists Switzerland (43.12) and Poland (43.15).
Hunt told BBC Sport: "I am stood next to the real life GOAT [greatest of all time]. She [Asher-Smith] is the most decorated European athlete in history.
"I am stood next to some amazing women. This girl [Eduan] is a midwife, she brings babies into the world. This girl [Lansiquot] wrote a play. We're all amazing.
"That was stunning to come together. I had the time of my life."
