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 only Stella to finish. Undefeated, unchallenged.

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 W1 median was on Col du Galibier 25:14 slower.

Your AI ride analysis

The Col du Galibier was brutal for you relative to your W1 field — about 25 minutes slower than the category median, the single biggest gap of your day. The Croix de Fer and Col de Sarenne also ran 6-13 minutes behind median, so the climbing legs struggled across the whole route. The descents were the opposite story: you were consistently faster than your category coming down, gaining back close to 19 minutes on the two-descent combined classification alone. Given that pattern, dedicated climbing work — especially pacing the Galibier rather than attacking it — is the clearest lever for next year.
