Winner and median are over classified finishers 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 10th fastest Maël of 16. The quickest one did 6:08:10, the median Maël 8:54:46.

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

Room to improve: your biggest relative loss vs. the M1 median was on Descente + vallée de la Maurienne — 8:25 slower.

Your AI ride analysis

Maël, 5,073rd out of 12,733 sits just below the midpoint of the M1 field, and the Descente + vallée de la Maurienne was the section that hurt most — about 8 minutes 25 seconds behind the M1 median. The climbs around it were only mildly off: 5 minutes 45 seconds over on the Col de la Croix de Fer and about 5 minutes 19 seconds over on the Col du Galibier. You clawed some of it back on the Descente du Galibier though, nearly 5 minutes 44 seconds faster than the median. Given how isolated that Maurienne valley loss is, pacing or drafting through that specific flat-ish stretch is the most direct lever for a faster overall time.

These are rows sharing the same first and last name. A name is only shown as one career when no single race ever contained two people with it — which rules out the names that are provably shared, but cannot rule out two strangers who never lined up together. If one of these is not you, the removal link at the foot of this page applies to it too.

Where this comes from. This page is built from the official results of L’Étape du Tour 2026, published by Sport Innovation / TimeTo. Names, bib numbers and times are reproduced from that public classification; the split analysis and rankings on this page are mine. Athletes who asked to be anonymous in the official results are anonymous here too.

Is this you, and would you rather it were not? Write to me and I will take your name and bib off this site, usually the same day. The result itself stays as an anonymous line so that the race totals and averages remain correct — nothing that identifies you is kept.

Ask me to remove my name

One thing worth knowing before you write: removing your name here does not remove it from the timekeeper’s own results, which is where it is published and which this site only mirrors. To have it taken down at the source, ask the event organiser or the timekeeper directly — otherwise it stays online there, and any other site that mirrors them can pick it up again.
