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 15th fastest Benoit of 74. The quickest one did 6:47:29, the median Benoit 10:18:44.

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 M3 median was on Col de Sarenne — 5:14 slower.

Your AI ride analysis

Finishing 3,731st out of 12,733 in M3, the Maurienne valley section was a major strength, about 17 minutes ahead of the category median. The only real leak came late, on the Col de Sarenne climb, which cost roughly 5 minutes versus the median. With that much cushion built earlier in the stage, the fade on Sarenne looks like a fatigue-management issue rather than a lack of climbing ability, and pacing the middle of the route slightly more conservatively could preserve even more of that early advantage for the final climb.

Times are chip times from the official race timekeeping. Search another rider.

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.
