Jamaica’s Kishane Thompson, Oblique Seville and Shericka Jackson are among the stars featured in the trailer for the highly anticipated second season of the hit Athletics Documentary series SPRINT- “SPRINT 2”, which premieres on November 13.

The trailer, which was released on Thursday, teases intense, anxious and nervewracking moments by jamaicans and other athletes throughout the season climaxing at the Olympic Games finals in Paris.

Thompson and Seville, who, of course, were finalists in that heart-throbbing men’s 100m finals that crescendoed into the closest ever finish in Games history, seeing USA’s Noah Lyles clip Thomspon by 100th-of-second for Gold.

The trio, along with the rivalry between Women’s 100m & 200m World Champions Shericka and USA’s Sha’Carri Richardson, is also among the main highlights expected to feature heavily in a drama-filled season two.

That showdown unfortunately failed to materialise following Jackson’s forced withdrawal due to injury. Richardson was relegated to the silver medal following a storming run by St.Lucia’s Gold medalist Julien Alfred.

SPRINT Season 1, which premiered in July as an Olympics precursor, was declared a smash after opening to rave reviews as one of the top streamed content on the platform following its airing in summer.
