Stage 2 of the Vuelta a Burgos Feminas was dominated by a three-rider breakaway that was off the front for two-thirds of the 97-kilometre stage but the leader's jersey changed hands due to the tie-breaker between stage 1 winner Grace Brown (Team BikeExchange) and Elise Chabbey (Canyon-SRAM).

In a race with no bonus seconds available, Brown, Chabbey, and Niamh Fisher-Black (Team SD Worx) had been on the same time, and all three finished in the peloton.
