Thomas wore the pink jersey for the first time after the tenth stage, but on Saturday he had to give it up to the surprising leader Bruno Armirail from France. He now leads by 18 seconds over Almeida. Slovenian favorite Primož Roglič is third with a gap of 29 seconds. The 95th position belongs to the Czech cyclist Karl Vack.
Today the peloton awaits the descent to the Adriatic Sea with the destination in the resort of Caorle, where after 195 kilometers the sprinters should fight for victory.
