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.

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, with nothing on it that names you. More in the privacy notice.

Ask me to remove my name

Your other races on this site are not linked to this page unless you ask. If you would like them listed here, use “Link my races” at the top of this page.

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.
