Despite numerous attacks, the peloton remains bunched for most of the race. First Ana Vitória Magalhães and then Marta Jaskulska are the only riders who manage to open up a gap for a couple of kilometres.

In the last 10 kilometers, Jaskulska is caught, and then Lotte Kopecky sprints to commanding victory, finishing a few bike lengths ahead of Chiara Consonni. The stage winner earns a 10 second time bonus,closing in on race leader Elisa Longo Borghini to 3 seconds
