Stage 11: Acoponeta - Mazatlan
Totally flat stage, Miuller (stevens) attacked on km 0, but as nobody joined he dropped back to the peloton. r QUICK started to control just before the first IS, getting points with Ganna and Borgia, Tesla sprinting for place 3 and losing 4 points to Ganna. Then nothing happens until Lamparter (T-Mobile-A) attacks some kms before the 2 IS around km 130. A&D with control tempo and sprinting for 4 points with Tesla, so fought back. Ganna getting the points back on the second IS. 12 points difference before the MS. But the sprint teams not covering the last 20km and A&D alone in tempo. Orter and Liivik (T-Mobile-A) attacking with Lamparter still in front, Srivastav (A&D) following. But the 4 men group was caught 2 km to the goal and the sprint was interesting this time. r QUICK weakened both his train (Borgia 2x sprint at IS) and his leader (Ganna 2x sprint at IS) which opened the field for some new sprint teams. Brunsketti Swiss Team had the trust in his train with Wagundo and Loosli he brought his leader Menerdi in good position. But Edogawa found the perfect timing to launch from Menerdi's wheel before he started and won the race. Green leader just finished 4th but made a big step winning green. Before the last 2 stages, he leads by 19 points. Still not "in trockenen Tüchern" but nearly.
