Winner and median are over classified riders only. The gap is what you add to their time to get yours: + means you were that much slower, that much faster.

The fun ranking

The 9th fastest David of 44. The quickest one did 6:15:31, the median David 10:08:59.

Among classified riders only, ties sharing a place. Not an official classification — no timekeeper has ever scored this.

Among classified riders from this team only, ties sharing a place. This is not the team classification, which scores each team on its 3 best times.

This official time contains an untimed section

David is missing a mat read at one end of col de la croix de fer descent and la grave (entrée) descent, and the credit needs both ends. So the time above includes minutes the rest of the field had subtracted — a median of for col de la croix de fer descent and for la grave (entrée) descent.

The credit requires both mats bounding a neutralised section, and the timekeeper does not compensate when one is missed. This rider is therefore charged for a stretch the rest of the field rode for free — in their own official time, and so in their rank. We publish the time exactly as the timekeeper does, and we say when it applies.

What that does to a rank →

⚠️ This rider’s chip was read at only 10 of the 13 timing mats — section times that need a missing mat can’t be computed, and they are absent from the corresponding leaderboards. The overall result is unaffected.

Net — the result
the ranked time

The arithmetic is exact: 8:30:46 gross minus 18:32 of credits is 8:12:14, the time this ride is ranked on.

Every rank on this page is on the official time — gross minus the neutralisation credits. The gross chip time is what the rider’s own computer showed; it ranks nothing here.

Official links

Heads-up on the diploma: the position baked into that PDF is generated from the gross chip time on this timekeeper’s templates, and on a race with neutralised sections that is not the official ranking. The rank on this page is the official one.

Faster than the median everywhere: the closest margin was on Col du Télégraphe → Valloire.

“Since previous” is the time between consecutive reads on the official clock, so the neutralised stretches read neutralised rather than 0:00 — and no km/h is computed across them, because dividing a real distance by zero seconds has no answer.

* This leg spans more than one mat interval: a mat in between had no read for this rider, so the time covers both.
