Norway won the Östersund relay easily, France and Russia finished behind

The Norwegian team was in the lead from start to finish, didn't allow anyone to take over the leadership even for a short time. The pursuers changed and changed, but Norway continued to lead confidently. Johannes Boe, Tarjei Boe, Sievert Bakken and Vetle Christiansen.

At first, the Ukrainian team was the only pursuer, but as soon as Johannes Boe join the game, Ukraine immediately fell off, besides, Bohdan Tsymbal got nervous at his stand, and earned a penalty loop, which is unacceptable for relay races.

The Russian team moved up to second place, but its representative was also jittery, Eduard Latypov, having a better speed than Christiansen, wanted to win this race too much, and again the victory slips out of the hands of this athlete. The penalty loop, and Quentin Fillon Maillet, who started 40 seconds behind from Latypov, passed him and brought the French team silver.

Then there were huge gaps, and the teams from Germany, Ukraine, and Belarus closed the top 6.

The Swedish team fired as many as 15 extra cartridges, one penalty loop through the efforts of Peppe Femling, and only thanks to the excellent work of Samuelsson and Ponsiluoma, they landed in 7th place.
