The photograph above shows David leading the 800 metres final at the half way distance.
The smaller race pictures is him charging towards the finish line with the other runners trailing him.
The third image shows him pointing to the new World Record - the only one by an individual athlete during the 2012 Games track and field events.
(Both 4x100m relays were run in world record times - Jamaica men and U.S.A. women.)
