And while they were only fifth fastest in the cross-country with a time of 32:50.3 minutes, it was still enough to see them top the podium.
Braud and Laheurte couldn't hold on to second spot as they posted the seventh-fastest cross-country time to finish third, 7.1 seconds off the pace.
It was the German team of Tobias Haug and Tino Edelmann who finished second in a time of 32:41.0.
Germany lead the Nations Cup on 3640 points, 509 ahead of Norway.
