23 August 1950, 5:55 p.m.
The preliminary round was carried out in six runs. The first two athletes per run - highlighted in light blue - qualified for the semi-finals. As with previous European championships, the unequal division of the preliminary runs is to be criticized. Races two to five were filled with five participants each, the sixth with four runners. In the first race, on the other hand, only two athletes started who only had to reach the finish in order to be in the next lap.
