It was a bit of a wait for attack attempts. They did come, but no one really got away until an attack attempt by Typhaine Laurance (Lifeplus-Wahoo)

The Frenchwoman rode alone in front of the peloton for a long time, but was also quickly caught up again

The first task was also a fact early on; The Spanish Mireia Benito of AG Insurance-Soudal Quick-Step crashed and could not continue

The nervousness also caused some falls. Maaike Coljé, among others, was in a fall at 28 kilometers from the finish, just before the intermediate sprint of the day where Lizzie Deignan passed first
