His six bonus seconds at the Red Bull KM pushed his lead over Jonas Vingegaard back out to 33 seconds.<\/p>\n<p>There were no major changes among the main contenders. Vingegaard stays second, Thymen Arensman remains third at 2:03, Felix Gall is fourth at 2:30, and Ben O\u2019Connor sits fifth at 2:50 after picking up four bonus seconds of his own.<\/p>\n<p>With the GC favourites all finishing safely in the reduced front group, the stage was more about avoiding trouble than forcing gaps. Eulalio, though, will take another small boost from extending his advantage before the race heads towards more decisive terrain.<\/p>\n<p>RnkPosition ChangeRiderTeamTime1Eulalio\u00a0AfonsoBahrain Victorious48:10:382Vingegaard\u00a0JonasTeam Visma | Lease a Bike+ 333Arensman\u00a0ThymenNetcompany INEOS Cycling Team+ 02:034Gall\u00a0FelixDecathlon CMA CGM Team+ 02:305O&#8217;Connor\u00a0BenTeam Jayco-AlUla+ 02:506Hindley\u00a0JaiRed Bull-BORA-hansgrohe+ 03:127Storer\u00a0MichaelTudor Pro Cycling Team+ 03:348Gee-West\u00a0DerekLidl-Trek+ 03:409Pellizzari\u00a0GiulioRed Bull-BORA-hansgrohe+ 03:4210Harper\u00a0ChrisPinarello-Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team+ 04:1511Beloki\u00a0MarkelEF Education-EasyPost+ 04:2012Rondel\u00a0MathysTudor Pro Cycling Team+ 04:5113Scaroni\u00a0ChristianXDS Astana Team+ 04:5414Piganzoli\u00a0DavideTeam Visma | Lease a Bike+ 05:3315Bernal\u00a0EganNetcompany INEOS Cycling Team+ 05:4516Caruso\u00a0DamianoBahrain Victorious+ 06:1717de la Cruz\u00a0DavidPinarello-Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team+ 06:4318Hirt\u00a0JanNSN Cycling Team+ 07:5319Kuss\u00a0SeppTeam Visma | Lease a Bike+ 08:5920Arrieta\u00a0IgorUAE Team Emirates-XRG+ 09:1421L\u00f3pez\u00a0MartinXDS Astana Team+ 09:4922Kulset\u00a0JohannesUno-X Mobility+ 10:0623M\u00fchlberger\u00a0GregorDecathlon CMA CGM Team+ 10:2424\u25b22Ciccone\u00a0GiulioLidl-Trek+ 11:5125\u25b26Aleotti\u00a0GiovanniRed Bull-BORA-hansgrohe+ 20:31Points Classification Standings after Stage 12<a href=\"https:\/\/cyclinguptodate.com\/paul-magnier\" title=\"Paul Magnier\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Paul Magnier<\/a> keeps the points jersey, but Jhonatan Narvaez remains within striking distance after Stage 12.
