The 4x200m Relay is not a common relay format outdoors but the IAAF do recognise it as a world record eligible event. It is more popular at indoor meets due to each leg being a single lap, although it has never featured at the IAAF World Indoor Championships.
It has been a part of the World Masters Indoor Championships since the first champs in 2004.
For relays, the youngest member of the relay team determines the age group of the team.
Electronic times are required. Some historical times that predate this requirement may be hand-times (h). Where it is not readily evident that a historical hand timed record or electronic time is faster, both will be listed. [I believe any time given with a single decimal is hand timed but unless marked it is not explicitly expressed.]
