Hunts wins fourth gold as Great Britain storm to mixed 4x100m relay victory
Amy Hunt and Dina Asher-Smith made history and Georgia Hunter Bell claimed a commanding 1500m gold as Great Britain maintained their bid to top the final medal table at the European Championships.
Sprint sensation Hunt held up four fingers to the camera after holding off Germany's challenge on the home straight of the mixed 4x100m relay as another sell-out crowd roared the 24-year-old on to an unprecedented fourth gold of the week.
The world silver medallist completed victory for the quartet in a European record 39.97 seconds to add to her triumphs in the 100m, 200m and women's 4x100m in Birmingham.
With her eighth gold and 11th medal overall, Asher-Smith is unparalleled as the most successful athlete in the competition's 92-year history, with a team also featuring Jeremiah Azu and Zharnel Hughes extending the hosts' domination of the sprint events.
Hunter Bell expertly controlled the women's 1500m final before bursting clear to continue her golden year by adding to world indoor and Commonwealth glory.
That represented the 32-year-old's seventh international medal in two years as she continues to build momentum on her fairytale return to the sport which she quit for five years following a promising junior career.
That was Great Britain's ninth gold medal, taking them above Italy at the top of the standings - and the team's 16th overall.

GB's Hunter-Bell comfortably wins 'serene, beautiful' 1500m gold
Less than 24 hours after combining with their respective men's and women's quartets to win 4x100m golds, Azu, Asher-Smith, Hughes and Hunt - in that order - made it six golds out of a possible seven across the sprint events.
Hunt described team-mate Asher-Smith as "the real life GOAT" [greatest of all time] after the 30-year-old won a record-equalling seventh gold on Saturday night, a decade on from capturing her first.
Despite feeling "absolutely terrified" during the event's inaugural mixed 4x100m relay, Asher-Smith, world 200m champion in 2019, leaves Birmingham a 22-time international medallist in her senior career.
Based on her performances this week, Hunt is only just getting started with her growing medal collection.
The Cambridge University graduate boldly stated her intention to take all four sprint titles this week in her bid to be "iconic".
The weight of expectation has increased with each success, but she has risen to the moment in front of her home crowd on each occasion and few expected her to falter once she took the baton and began her battle with Germany's Gina Luckenkemper.
Cheering his team-mate on after handing over to Hunt, Hughes matched Matthew Hudson-Smith, Mo Farah and Roger Black as the most successful British man with his fifth gold at the championships.
