In the previous three Olympics, the winning team beat the silver medalists by a cumulative time of just under one tenth of a second.

Each team used four skiers, with each completing racing over the same 10 kilometre circuit. The first two raced in the classical style, and the final pair of skiers raced freestyle.
The race was started at 09:30.[2]
