L’Étape du Tour de France 2025, every split of every rider

Albertville → La Plagne, 131 km and five timed climbs to a summit finish. This explorer indexes the full timing data of the race — 13,649 finishers from 56 countries timed on 10 mats along the course, climb-by-climb leaderboards — beyond what the official results page shows.

Every classified rider has a page: splits, checkpoint ranks, climb times vs. the field.

Compare riders head-to-head
Up to 10 riders side by side — position along the course, checkpoint splits, and time on every climb up to the summit. Settle the club debate.
Official profile of L'Étape du Tour 2025: Albertville to La Plagne, 131 km, over the Côte d'Héry-sur-Ugine, the Col des Saisies, the Col du Pré, the Cormet de Roselend and the final climb to La Plagne.
The organiser’s stage profile. Every climb length on this page comes from it — and the timing data reproduces four of the five to within 200 m, which is the reason to trust the same method on a course with no published profile.

Every segment

Rankings at every checkpoint

The course had 11 timing mats — who led the race at each one, and how the field spread out along the course. Mats occasionally miss a rider, which is why some rider pages show “mat missed” on a segment.

The finish time is read off the real 2026 results curve (interpolated between sampled places — measured worst case 14 s on a six-hour time). The section times are the median of the eleven riders who finished within five places of 100 overall, so they are what people around that place actually rode, not a model of how to pace it. They will not add up to the finish time: a median per section is not one rider’s race, and on some courses the timed sections do not cover every kilometre.

🐛 Something looks off? Wrong time, missing rider, a segment that doesn’t add up — this is a one-person side project on top of raw timing data, and reports make it better. Email me or ping me on LinkedIn.

About this project and its data. The results are Sport Innovation / TimeTo’s — the official timekeeper of the event. They were fetched once after the event and republished here with segment times, recomputed leaderboards and a page per athlete that the official results do not offer. The timing is their work; the analysis is mine, and any mistake in it is mine too. Course details come from L’Étape du Tour, the organiser. Times are chip times. That is not taken from the timing system’s own <code>usesRealTimeRanking</code> flag, which says otherwise for this race: sorting the field by chip time reproduces the published general ranking for 100.0% of riders, and by gun time for 0.4%. Athletes who asked to be anonymous in the official results stay anonymous here.
