The Netherlands managed to take the first place, and the Japanese team came to the second place.
With 13 laps left, Hungary still used Liu Shaolin's performance to successfully complete the overtaking to the first place. However, the Netherlands still used the handover of the baton to complete the transcendence once again. In the end, Hungary was the first to cross the finish line with a time of 6:39.71. The Dutch team finished second in Group B and Japan finished third in Group B.

After the start of the competition, Ren Ziwei was the fifth place. The Korean team is in the first place, at the beginning, everyone's overall speed is still relatively slow, after all, the whole game has a full 45 laps, there is no rush at all, and the real competition is in the last few laps to be able to distinguish the final victory and defeat.

With 15 laps left in the race, Wu Dajing completed the acceleration directly in the inner lane and rushed to the third place. The change in ranking at this time is that Canada came to the first place and the Korean team came in second place. As a result, the race was once again unexpected, and the Chinese players directly fell off the track and fell out directly, which basically withdrew from the medal competition.
