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.

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

⚠️ This rider’s chip was only read at 10 of the 12 timing mats — segment times that need a missing mat can’t be computed, and this rider is absent from the corresponding leaderboards.
Room to improve: your biggest relative loss vs. the M1 median was on Descente + vallée de la Maurienne 25:38 slower.

Your AI ride analysis

Finishing 9,986th out of 12,733 riders in M1, you were behind the M1 median on every timed segment, though the Descente Sarenne → Alpe d’Huez came closest. Nowhere were you closer to the M1 field than on the Descente Sarenne → Alpe d’Huez, about 31 seconds behind the median. The Télégraphe → Pied du Galibier (Valloire) was tighter, about 2 minutes behind the M1 median. That said, the Descente + vallée de la Maurienne was your rough patch: you went through about 26 minutes slower than the M1 median there. The clearest gain available to you next time is closing that Descente + vallée de la Maurienne gap with dedicated flat/rolling sessions.
