Eight UCI Women's WorldTeams and fourteen UCI Women's Continental Teams made up the twenty-two teams that competed in the race. Most teams entered the maximum of six riders; however, Eurotarget–Bianchi–Vittoria and Servetto–Piumate–Beltrami TSA entered five each, while Astana, Cogeas–Mettler–Look, and Tibco–Silicon Valley Bank only entered four each.[3] The day before the race, Ashleigh Moolman of CCC Liv, Ella Harris of Canyon–SRAM, and Clara Koppenburg of Équipe Paule Ka sustained various injuries in separate training ride crashes and were forced to pull out of the race. This reduced the starting peloton to 121 riders.[4] Of these riders, only 45 finished, while a further 13 riders finished over the time limit.
