Under the rain that came down in the last part of stage 11 from Forlì to the autodrome Enzo e Dino Ferrari in Imola, Nicola Boem defended the leadership in the points classification after yesterday victory in stage 10 fo the Giro d'Italia.
Boem also had the power to score more points, taking 3rd place in the first intermediate sprint. The stage was conquered by Russian Ilnur Zakarin (Katusha), who took the win with a solo attack. The maglia rosa group crossed the finish line 1.02 later with a strong Luca Chirico who followed the best on the many climbs.
”It was a demanding stage after the success of yesterday and the huge effort. Thanks to the team I scored new points in the first sprint and then I was dropped when the climbs arrived, going to the finish at my pace. Now we look day by day. I want to keep the jersey for some days but I know it won’t be easy," Boem said.
