Will there be a new world record in 100 m at the Van Damme Memorial in Belgium on Friday 5 Sept?

Settled as No

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/athletics/7596555.stm

Background:

Last Friday (29 Aug) Usain Bolt scored 9.83 once again slowing in the last meters. Last Tuesday (2 Sept) Asafa Powell did 9.72, equaling the second best time in history. Both will be in Brussels next Friday (5 Sept) along with Tyson Gay for the final of the athletics Grand Prix.
The three men have the 10 fastest times ever run at the distance.
"This has never happened before," said Brussels meet organizer Wilfried Meert.
"It's my last race of the season and I'm going out there to compete at my best," said Jamaican Bolt.
