Cédrine Kerbaol (Ceratizit-WNT) secured a rain-soaked solo victory at Durango-Durango Emakumeen Saria. The Frenchwoman made a late-race attack out of a three-rider breakaway and crossed the line with five seconds to spare ahead of the sprint for second place between runner-up Evita Muzic (FDJ-SUEZ) and  third-placed Thalita de Jong (Lotto Dstny).

The peloton raced 113km, including multiple opening circuits, a sprint at Alto de Miota, and three back-to-back climbs in the final 30km of Durango-Durango Emakumeen Saria. Those final ascents were Areitio (4.3km at 4.2%), Alto de Goiuria (5km at 4.8%), and a slightly shorter and steeper part of Alto de Goiuria (4.8km at 5.6%) before plummeting downhill toward the finish in Durango.
