Usain Bolt wins third consecutive 100 meters

By EDDIE PELLS AP National Writer RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — Usain Bolt sauntered onto the track, stretched out his arms and waved his hands, signaling for more applause. He knew how this night was going to go. Bolt’s swan song in the Olympic 100 meters Sunday night was a no-doubter — a pedestrian-by-his-standards 9.81-second sprint down the straightaway, but not so slow that he couldn’t take time to point at his own chest with his thumb a step before he crossed the finish line. “It was brilliant,” Bolt said. “I didn’t go so fast but I’m so happy I won. I told you guys I was going to do it.” He won his record-setting third straight title in track’s featured event and his seventh Olympic

Pedrosa: “Races like today are a lottery”

Dani Pedrosa: “It's been a pretty tough weekend but races like today are a lottery. In the first race it seemed that the strategy of running the soft tyre had gone well.

In the second race I crashed on the first lap, because I had a new rear tyre without too much grip. It has been

Tony Stewart On Fontana: “It sure races like an old, worn-out track”

Tony Stewart has not experienced a great level of success at Fontana. Smoke went winless in 18 Sprint Cup starts, before finally finding victory lane last October. He has run well early on in '11, coming up just short of victory at Vegas after leading 163 laps. Smoke looks to build on that finish at the similarly laid out Auto Club Speedway. Smoke has been dominant at times so far in '11 "Fontana is so momentum driven, and when it’s as slick as it was back in October, it puts it back in the driver’s hands, and I think that’s always going to be to my advantage." The two time Cup champion Stewart said. "But, you’re right, I’ve just been
