Is this why Samba has not been racing him this year?

No, Samba is "training" right now and the record will go down in Zurich or in Doha where the doping control will be on friendly grounds.
That was special. If he manages to hold his form he should be under 47.
I love how aggressive he is in races. Really fun to watch.
The gap between Warholm, Samba, Benjamin, and the rest of the world is crazy. Those 3 are having an incredible season, but I don't understand how everyone else is *so* far behind right now. You'd think there'd be at least a few hurdlers who'd be able to consistently run in the low 48s or faster.
22.0-25.1 splits according to the dl race analysis. Got to be good for at least 44 low in the 400m right now.

Was thinking the same thing. Warholm has done some flat 400s every year except this one. I think his PR of 44.87 from 2017 would be significantly lower now. Don't think he would have a problem winning the 400 and 400H in the Euro champs.

I would not see it out of the possibility that he could actually win 400H gold and 400 bronze in the WCs this year, if he were to go for something like that. He is scary fast now.
Every hurdle race should finish like that!
It was 47:12 not 47:13...
Very impressive. I was already impressed by his 47.3 earlier. He has surprised in how much he's taken off this year to put him in legitimate competition with Samba and Rai, who is still my favorite for gold because he has easily the best 400m speed of the contenders and ran 47.01 in the rain at NCAA's.

Warholm has been improving the last couple of years. Great progression. Also, we're really not sure where Warholm is now as far as the 400m...is he 44.8? Is he 44.3? Who knows. Samba seems to be going backwards now. Benjamin is too flaky. We'll see.

When did Benjamin become flakey?
Samba injured
