Just over six minutes into the race in the Italian Val di Fiemme, the incident occurred.

Home skier Francesco de Fabiani's and Norwegian Even Northug's skis got stuck during a track change, which led to them and three other skiers crashing.

All five got up shortly afterwards and completed the race, which Johannes Hösflot Kläbo won and took his 46th World Cup victory.

With that, he touched Björn Dählie's record.
