For 45 km, the true protagonist of Olso Holmekollen's 50 km was the audience, who packed the track, making the atmosphere magical for all the athletes involved. From the technical point of view there has been a lot of tactics and control, the only jumps have come close to the bonus sprint and when the athletes have decided to change materials. Leading the group were French and Norwegian, but the attacks were rare. Indeed, the only one that can be defined as such, was the one launched by the Duvillard-Roethe couple around 15 km and lasted until 20 km. All the big ones remained in the leading group until the last fifth of the race, with the exception of Klæbo, lingered after passing at km 10. At 6 km from the finish line it was Holund to skim the group, on its tails only the compatriots Sundby and Roethe, the Russians Vylegzhanin and Spitsov, the British Musgrave and Dario Cologna remained .
On the last ascent Sundby, Cologna and Vylegzhanin took a few meters ahead of the rest of the company and they won the victory in the sprint. Ten meters from the finish line, the Norwegian looked ahead and launched towards success, but with a break from the manual the Swiss managed to mock him for a single penny. The Russian has instead conquered the lowest step of the podium.
Fourth place finish for Sjur Roethe who preceded the Russian Denis Spitsov 5th, Hans Christer Holund 6th and Andrew Musgrave 7th. The German Florian Notz 8 °, the Canadian Alex Harvey 9 ° and the French Robin Duvillard 10 ° have come more late.
Very good evidence of the only Italian in the race Mirco Bertolina who finished 19 ° to 1''35 "from the winner, leaving behind weight names, like Maurice Manificat, the Olympic champion Iivo Niskanen and Alexey Chervotkin. ended his effort in 40th position at almost 7 minutes.
