Our team included debutant Khrystyna Dmytrenko, as well as Daria Blashko, Anna Kryvonis and Iryna Petrenko. Already in the first stage, Dmytrenko had to use two additional rounds, which put the Ukrainians far behind the leader group.

Blashko, who was the next to compete, lost control of her emotions and was forced to go to the penalty lap, which dropped the blue and yellows to the penultimate place. Kryvonos managed to improve the team's position by three positions and passed the baton to the experienced Petrova in 14th.
