Preliminary round
August 23, 1950, 7:20 p.m.
The preliminary round was carried out in two runs with five teams each. The first three seasons per run - highlighted in light blue - qualified for the final.
The first run was repeated. The reasons for this could not be determined in the sources. The team from Yugoslavia, which had finished fifth and last in the first race, was no longer in the re-run. The same three seasons qualified for the finals as in the original run, only the order among them was different. Belgium finished fourth in both races and was eliminated.
