Great Britain added more medals to their tally as the men’s 4×400 metres relay team collected bronze at the Stade de France.

The leaders extended their advantage, and by the time Lewis Davey handed off to Charlie Dobson and he rounded the final bend, there was considerable distance both in front of and behind the British anchor.
