La Vuelta España Femenina si apre nel segno di Noemi Ruegg. La 25enne svizzera della EF Education–Oatly, già vincitrice a inizio stagione del Tour Down Under U23, ha conquistato allo sprint la prima frazione della corsa spagnola, 113 chilometri da Marín a Salvaterra de Miño. Ruegg ha preceduto una rivale d’eccezione come la belga Lotte Kopecky e la tedesca Franziska Koch, al rientro alle competizioni dopo il trionfo alla Parigi–Roubaix. Buona prova anche per l’azzurra Monica Trinca Colonel, ottava al traguardo.
Con il successo inaugurale, Ruegg indossa naturalmente la maglia di leader della classifica generale.
