Race report
A group of 9 riders – with Fisher-Black, Vos, Stultiens and Brand – jumps clear after 50 kilometres before Vollering, Van Vleuten, Longo Borghini, Kopecky and Persico jump across on the Keutenberg. It doesn’t last and it all comes together with 79 kilometres to go.

Brand and Stultiens give it another go on the first time Geulhemmerberg. The Dutch duo opens up a 2 minutes gap before they are caught inside the last 24 kilometres.

Paladin attacks on the last drag up the Bemelerberg. Brown tracks her down inside the last 6 kilometres, yet the two are caught in the Cauberg climb.

It is home rider Vollering who attacks on the false flat after the summit. She solos to victory, while a regroupment takes place behind her. Kopecky bests Van Anrooij in the sprint for second place.
