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.

Room to improve: your biggest relative loss vs. the M8 median was on Col de Sarenne — 17:47 slower.

Your AI ride analysis

Placing 9291st out of 12733 in M8, your day had both bright spots and rough patches. Nowhere did you look better than on Descente + vallée de la Maurienne, about 10 minutes up on the M8 median. Most of the damage happened on Col de Sarenne, about 18 minutes down on the M8 median. Taken as a whole, your combined time on the day's three major ascents was about 12 minutes slower relative to the M8 median of about 324 minutes. Building a more even climbing rhythm on long ascents is probably the highest-leverage fix for that segment.

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.
