<p><b>New page</b></p><div>== Contradictory top speed figures for Bolt's 9.58 s world record run ==<br />
<br />
The article gives two different figures for Bolt's top speed during his 9.58 s world record at the 2009 Berlin World Championships, and they cannot both be correct.<br />
<br />
In the '''2009 Berlin World Championships''' section, the article states: "With a top speed of '''12.32 m/s''' (44.35 km/h; 27.56 mph), it was the recorded fastest speed a human has ever ran."<br />
<br />
In the '''Personal bests''' section, the article states: "Bolt's top speed, based on his split time of 1.61 seconds for the 20 metres from the 60- to 80-metre marks (made during the 9.58 WR at 100 m), is '''12.42 m/s''', 44.72 km/h, or 27.79 mph."<br />
<br />
Both passages are explicitly describing the same run — the 9.58 s WR in Berlin — yet they give top speed figures that differ by 0.10 m/s (and correspondingly different km/h and mph conversions). The two statements are mutually contradictory; the article needs to settle on a single figure, supported by a consistent source.
