The madrilenian Julián Berrendero dominated the overall standings from start to finish and won his second triumph in a row. The leader of the general classification now went clad in the orange jersey after the one-time experiment with the white jersey in the round of 1941 . Berrendero's superiority was so great that he could not interfere in the battle for the mountain classification and containing the Italian (later French) Pierre Brambilla managed to stay.

The first stage was a foreshadowing of the final victory of Berrendero. The number two of the previous year, Fermín Trueba, after a puncture had to make a great effort and would not end up finishing.Berrendero escaped with Francisco Antonio Andres Sancho and the two ended with 5'25 "ahead of the Frenchman Georges Meunier , 19'04 "on co-favorites Joaquín Olmos and Ciprino Elys and 30'29 "on the peloton. In the second stage got another rival, Antonio Escuriet, off to stay further with his wife and newborn child.

Berrendero's main opponents were thus eliminated early and he only did Andrés Sancho to settle. In the tenth stage made ​​Berrendero on the Col d'Ason an attack by Pierre Brambilla harmless, won the stage and extended his lead by Andrés Sancho with a decisive 12'50 "out. More than 100,000 people Berrendero inaugurated in the Casa de Campo in Madrid.
