The first rider departed at 16:50 CEST (UTC+02:00). The route started on the Via F. Rizzoli, heading west for the first half of the course.

Roglič also took the lead in the points classification. Giulio Ciccone (Lidl–Trek) took the lead in the mountains classification and became the first wearer of the blue jersey, while Miguel Ángel López (Astana Qazaqstan Team) finished as the fastest young rider and became the leader of the young rider classification.
