Just before the end of the race, Karolina Bosiek fell down on the penultimate lap and she did not finish the race. Magdalena Czyszczoñ, with two points on her account (for volatile bonuses), was finally classified in the 11th place, and Karolina Bosiek in the 17th position.
The gold medal was won by the Dutchwoman Irenet Schouten. The silver medal for the Canadian Ivanie Blondin and the bronze one was won by the Italian Francesca Lollobrigida.
