Vítězem Clasica de Almeria se stal Giacomo Nizzolo před Florianem Sénéchalem a Martinem Laasem.
Závodem Clasica de Almeria odstartovala sezóna i na Pyrenejském poloostrově. První polovina závodu přinesla několik neúspěšných pokusů o únik. Nakonec se podařilo poodjet šestici závodníků, ale ani těm nedal peloton příliš prostoru. Sprinterské udávaly tempo hlavního pelotonu a únik nakonec dostihly v bezpečné vzdálenosti před cílem.
Závěrečné kilometry bohužel přinesly několik pádů. Těm se nevyhnuli ani někteří velcí favorité. Na zemi skončil Álvaro Hodeg, Iván García Cortina či Jordi Meeus. Černý den favoritů pokračoval, když v samém závěru potkal defekt Marka Cavendishe.
I přes ztrátu dvou svých favoritů dokázal tým Deceuninck-Quick Step vypracovat dobrou pozici pro Floriana Sénéchala. Za francouzským závodníkem však na výborné pozici číhal Giacomo Nizzolo. Evropský mistr si v závěru musel poradit docela sám, avšak zvládl to na výbornou, když se mu rychlostně nikdo nemohl rovnat a dojel si pro své první sezónní vítězství. Sénéchal nakonec obsadil druhé místo, třetí pak Martin Laas, který obstojně dokázal zastoupit původního lídra týmu Meeuse.
