The second position was claimed by the reigning European champion Kim Meylemans from Belgium, who finished just 0.18 seconds behind Flock, thus celebrating her third podium finish of the season. Nicole Silveira from Brazil secured third place (0.27 seconds back), also earning a spot on the podium—this was already her second after the opening World Cup in PyeongChang (KOR) in November 2024.

The fourth to sixth places went to Tabitha Stoecker (GBR), Kimberley Bos (NED), and Jacqueline Pfeifer (GER), allowing athletes from a total of six nations to make it into the top six. The two Swiss athletes, Sara Schmied and Julia Simmchen, finished in 28th and 30th places.
