Yeah, you're correct. The Expert has 10r, apparently, the other model that comes with 11r is the Roubaix Pro model.
Oh and the site has been updated with 2018 Roubaix

)(S-Works Fact 11r)
There's a new S-Works frameset that has a very nice colourway, but overall I feel 2017 has nicer colourway across the ranges. Too many solid and black colours for 2018 in my opinion.
Curiously, 2018 Models are specced with 160mm rear rotors and they're regular 6 bolt rotors instead of Shimano Center Lock Ice Tech rotors, cost cutting perhaps?
