Race
After the first hour where the bunch remained together, there were several attacks with Boels–Dolmans dominating the race. With 30 km to go Ellen van Dijk escaped from a front group of 15 riders on the Molenberg with Anna van der Breggen the only one who could follow her. The duo extended their advantage over the cobbled sections that followed, holding off the chase group to the line, where Van Dijk lost the two-up sprint. Behind them Armitstead sprinted to the third place.[2]
