This paper is aimed to study the ergodic short-term behaviour of discretizations of circle expanding maps. More precisely, we prove some asymptotics of the distance between the $t$-th iterate of Lebesgue measure by the dynamics $f$ and the $t$-th iterate of the uniform measure on the grid of order $N$ by the discretization on this grid, when $t$ is fixed and the order $N$ goes to infinity. This is done under some explicit genericity hypotheses on the dynamics, and the distance between measures is measured by the mean of \emph{ Cram\'er} distance. The proof is based on a study of the corresponding linearized problem, where the problem is translated into terms of equirepartition on tori of dimension exponential in $t$. A numerical study associated to this work is presented in arXiv:2206.08000 [math.DS].
