The stage was locked in for a long time, as the wind was not strong enough to create fans, but after the first passage of the local lap the peloton broke into pieces. Team SD Worx did not miss the train and was fully in front. The peloton would sprint for the win. Elena Cecchini provided a clever lead out and Lonneke Uneken finished it off. The first win of the season is a special one. "After a very difficult period, I'm very happy about this," Lonneke Uneken said. "This victory is for Amy. I hope it can give her and her family some strength."

Uneken took the win after a splitting sprint. "I felt it would be close when I came into the wind. But I knew I could maybe just beat her if I kept sprinting. I am happy to offer the team its first victory, we already felt in the opening weekend that our form was good. It's nice to get that confirmation."
