Lorena Wiebes del Team DSM ha conquistato in volata la prima tappa del Lotto Belgium Tour, davanti a Jolien D'Hoore (Squadra nazionale belga) e Barbara Guarischi del team Movistar. Buon 7° posto per l'altra italiana Arianna Fidanza.
Con il secondo posto, D'Hoore strappa la leadership a Ellen van Dyke del team TrekSegafredo, vincitrice del prologo. Il percorso di 112,6 km è iniziato sulla costa a Blankenberge per poi spostarsi su di un circuito di quattro giri fino all'arrivo a Brugge.


La gara è stata controllata dai team delle velociste. Negli ultimi 20 chilometri, le Bingoal Casino Chevalmeire Cycling sono state molto attive con gli attacchi di Kelly van dan Steen, poi di Natalie Van Gogh, ma entrambe sono stati risucchiate da un team Movistar che lavorava per Van Dyke e le DSM che lavorano per Wiebes.

Oggi la seconda tappa di 137,5 km, con inizio e fine a Galmaarden.
