The mixed relay on 28 March featured 15 teams. The Belarusian team of Hanna Sola, Dzinara Smolskaya, Dzmitry Lazouski and Anton Smolski grabbed the leading position from the very start.
Hanna Sola used one spare to tag Dzinara Smolskaya with a five-second advantage. Dzinara, with six shots, was second at the next exchange, giving way to Kristina Reztsova from Khanty-Mansiysk. Dzmitry Lazouski shot clean to restore Belarus’ lead. The competitors were not so accurate in shooting and ran much slower.
