Description

The Mixed 4x400 Metres Relay Final at the 2025 World Athletics Relays is set to deliver high drama as eight nations compete for the title and automatic qualification to the World Championships in Tokyo. The race is scheduled for 21:03 local time (13:03 UTC) at the Guangdong Olympic Stadium in Guangzhou.

Team USA enters the final as the top contender after posting a world-leading time of 3:11.37 in the heats. They’ll be aiming to reassert their dominance in the discipline following their shock elimination in the Mixed 4x100 relay due to a baton exchange error.

Ireland surprised many by securing a direct spot in the final with an impressive performance, continuing their recent rise in relay events. Belgium and Australia also advanced with strong showings in the heats, both demonstrating the depth and consistency needed to challenge for a podium finish.

Great Britain and South Africa earned automatic qualification as well, while Kenya and Poland advanced as the two fastest non-automatic qualifiers. Each team will need to balance power and strategy carefully, particularly in deciding the order of their male and female athletes.

Spain brings a balanced mix of experience and youth, with runners like Manu Guijarro and Bernat Erta leading the squad alongside emerging talents such as Daniela Fra and Blanca Hervás. The Spanish team is determined to make a mark on the global stage and punch their ticket to the Paris 2026 Olympics.

With powerhouse programs and rising nations all in the mix, the Mixed 4x400 Final promises to be one of the most intense and tactically fascinating events of the competition.
