Here again, to avoid unwanted congestion, World Cup Mass starts are held with only the 30 top ranking athletes on the start line half that of the Pursuit as here all contestants start simultaneously.

The Mass Start with 60 starters does not replace the current Mass Start with 30 starters. Everyone skis the first lap together, but then only the first 30 stop to shoot and the second 30 keep skiing.

At the end of the second lap the second 30 stop to shoot and the first 30 continue to ski. After the first two shoots are over everyone's first prone then the race continues like a normal one and they all shoot the other prone and two stands together.

Two athletes must shoot in the prone shooting round, the other two in the standing round. The skiers must enter the shooting area together, and must also finish within 15 seconds of each other; otherwise a time penalty of one minute is added to the total time.

Since , this race format has been obsolete at the World Cup level. World Cup races are streamed via the IBU website.

The broadcast distribution being one indicator, the constellation of a sport's main sponsors usually gives a similar, and correlated, indication of popularity: for biathlon, these are the Germany-based companies E.
