Comment on the world record:
The relay from Jamaica had undercut the record of the US Americans at the 2008 Olympic Games , but was subsequently disqualified because their starting runner Nesta Carter was convicted of doping.

The existing EM record was not set at these European championships and was not improved.

Preliminary round

The preliminary round was held in two runs. The first three seasons per run - highlighted in light blue - as well as the two fastest teams - highlighted in light green - qualified for the final.
