The maximum number of starters per country was four and was used by 18 countries. All 88 athletes were allowed to take part directly in the competition, there was no pre-qualification. The first ten of the overall World Cup had the opportunity to freely choose their starting group. However, since these comprised more than 30 runners and the start numbers were drawn within the groups, chance still played a major role in the determined order. Weather forecasts predicted bad conditions before the competition as they had already occurred at the end of the women's competition. The German Arnd Peiffer decided on the second phase. He justified this with the fact that light snowfall was predicted at the beginning before the race. So he thought it would be better to start running towards the middle of the competition.
In fact, the weather conditions were much better in the beginning, from which the first ten starters could benefit. Then it started to snow, which made the route significantly slower. In the final standings, the six best athletes all started early - with the first ten starting numbers. With the Norwegian Emil Hegle Svendsen and the Austrian Christoph Sumann , however, there were only two athletes traded as favorites. The rest of the competitors, who were rated as strong, had no chance: Ole Einar Bjørndalen made four mistakes and finished 17th, overall World Cup leader Simon Fourcade even missed qualifying for the pursuit in 71st place. The surprise winner was Vincent Jay with starting number six, who had won the individual test competitions on the Olympic track a year earlier. Jay said about his Olympic victory: “The weather was very good for me today.” The silver medal was won by Svendsen, who also found very good conditions in tenth; he too saw a great advantage in this. The first Olympic medal in Vancouver for Croatia was won by Jakov Fak , who described the day as the most beautiful of his life. Even before the race, he said that he was satisfied if his performance was similar to that in training. He hopes that he has pleased Croatia with this medal.
The Austrians and Germans, who were also at least one of the favorites, had no chance. While Sumann had a good starting position as seventh starter, but missed it with two misses in the first shooting, Simon Eder with the high start number 42 completed a faultless race and finished eleventh. “I needed a zero in shooting and I did it, I'm proud of that. With a low start number it could have been top five or even a medal, ”said Eder after the competition. Like his father, the Austrian head coach Alfred Eder , he was also dissatisfied with the conditions and called them a lottery. Also the Germans could not run for the top ten places as expected due to high starting numbers. The three-time Olympic champion from Turin Michael Greis made three mistakes, finished 21st and was annoyed: “It wasn't meant to be, it was a very bad day.” The best German was Christoph Stephan , who finished 19th with one mistake and in In retrospect, he explained that he knew at the start that nothing would work that day. The German national coach Frank Ullrich described the conditions as irregular. In the Swiss group, Thomas Frei , who remained flawless, convinced in 13th place.
