		</div><p>Usain Bolt has lost his 4×100 metres relay gold medal from the 2008 Beijing Olympics as a result of Jamaica team-mate Nesta Carter being disqualified for a doping violation.</p>
<p>It means that through no fault of his own, the sprinting superstar can no longer claim to hold the “triple triple” – just two triples and one double instead.</p>
<p>That’s still an incredible feat but probably won’t feel like it to Bolt right now.</p>
<p>It also means Bolt is no longer joint top of the all-time Olympic track and field gold medals list.</p>
<p>But despite the controversy there’s no doubt in a lot of people’s minds that he’s still the greatest.</p>
<p>The 31-year-old Carter ran the first leg in the 4×100 metres relay in Beijing, helping Jamaica to a new world record of 37.10 seconds and Bolt to his third Olympic gold medal.</p>
<p>But the International Olympic Committee has now stripped the Jamaicans of that victory after a re-analysis of Carter’s anti-doping sample tested positive for the banned stimulant methylhexaneamine.</p>
<p>Fans are taking one piece of positivity from it though – does this mean we’ll be seeing Bolt in Tokyo?</p>
