Live action from Crystal Palace as the world's elite athletes finalise their preparations ahead of the World Championships in Berlin.

As always, the Grand Prix has attracted some of athletics' biggest names, with Usain Bolt and Yelena Isinbayeva two stand-out attractions.

Jamaican sprint sensation Bolt won the 200m at Crystal Palace in 2007 and 2008 but now switches to 100m for the first time.

Russian pole vault star Isinbayeva also seems to relish trips to South London - she has won the Grand Prix six times, setting three world records in the process. Like Bolt, she is a red-hot favourite for the World Championships.
