Russia's Olga Graf is on the ice with Rookard, so there is some excitement in the arena. Graf has the inside lane.

Well, that wasn't even close... Feeding off the crowd energy, Graf posts a 4:03.47 to become the race's new leader, while Rookard posts a very respectable 4:10.02, good for fourth place at the moment.
