No hubo sorpresas y la primera de las tres etapas del Tour de Chongming se decidió en un apretado sprint que cayó del lado de la italiana Giorgia Bronzini (Cylance), una de las cuatro grandes favoritas que, de esta forma, da el primer paso para llevarse un triunfo final que, salvo que pueda cuajar alguna escapada en los dos próximos días, se decidirá por medio de las bonificaciones de tiempo tanto en meta como en los distintos sprints intermedios (dos por etapa).
De hecho, Kristen Wild (Wiggle High5) fue la primera líder virtual de la carrera al llevarse el primero de esos premios intermedios, algo que sucedió antes de que la carrera entrara en su fase más nerviosa en la que un grupo de diez corredoras consiguió burlar el férreo control del pelotón y tomar una ligerísima ventaja que alcanzó su apogeo a falta de poco más de 40 kilómetros a meta con apenas 45 segundos de renta, suficientes como para que Claudia Koster (Virtu) se llevara el segundo de esos sprints intermedios.
En cualquier caso, el gran grupo quiso jugar con las fugadas y las mantuvo por delante, siempre a menos de medio minuto, hasta poco después de rebasada la pancarta de diez kilómetros para meta, donde Corinna Lechner (BTC City Ljubljana) y Dalia Muccioli (Valcar PBM) trataron de apurar sus opciones de sorprender manteniéndose todavía un tiempo más en cabeza.
El dúo mantuvo la tensión hasta el final, pero a dos kilómetros de meta, con los mejores trenes del pelotón lanzando a sus mujeres rápidas, la suerte estaba echada y quedó claro que todo se iba a reducir a un sprint que, sin embargo, se vio alterado por una caída masiva en la que, entre otras corredoras, se vio involucrada Kristen Wild y del que finalmente emergió como vencedora la italiana Bronzini que, además, se enfunda el primer maillot de líder de la prueba china.
