OSLO, June 9 -- Usain Bolt ran the year's fastest time of 19.86 seconds to grab the men's 200m title at the Bislett Games here on Thursday in rainy conditions.

Bolt delighted the crowd at Oslo's premiere athletics stadium with his usual pre-race antics, dancing for the camera and pretending to wet his fingers and dampen down any errant eyebrows.

The 24-year-old world record holder conquered the weak field, although finishing far off his world record of 19.19 seconds.

Starting in lane six, the Jamaican had caught compatriot Mario Forsythe on his outside within the first 15 meters, and in the final 80 meters there was no one to come close to the Jamaican.

Jamaica's Usain Bolt poses after winning the men's 200 metre event at the Diamond League's Bislett Games in Oslo June 9, 2011.

"Apart from the weather, it was all good," said Bolt as rain poured down. "The track was pretty good.

"I'm on my way home on Friday for three weeks training and will be back in Paris (on July 8)."

It was Bolt's first outing over 200m in 13 months, his last race coming in the Shanghai Diamond League meeting in May 2010.

But the double world and Olympic sprint champion, who admitted that the 200m was his favored event, showed no track rustiness, easing into the bend and hitting the back straight absolutely flying.

Gambian-born Norwegian Jaysuma Saidy Ndure finished second on 20.43 seconds, with Forsythe taking third 0.06 seconds behind.
