Беломъжев бе най-бърз в двете части на надпреварата, която се състоеше от спринт-пролог сутринта и преследване на средна дистанция следобед.
Станимир се нареди осми след сутрешния спринт и изоставаше само на 25 секунди от лидера Андрей Ламов (Русия), след което измина 8.5-те километра с най-добро време.
Секунда по-бавен от българина се оказа Андрей Ламов, а трети финишира шведът Андерс Холберг. 37 души участваха в преследването.
Кръгът за Световната купа по ски ориентиране приключва в неделя със състезание на дълга дистанция. Беломъжев бе на 11-то място в генералното класиране преди днешния си триумф, след който се очаква да се изкачи в топ 10.
