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

3:49:20 · 106th overall

One of the 1,586 riders who entered both Étapes this year — see the doublé analysis.

Strong across the board: you beat the M3 median on every climb and descent — closest margin on Télégraphe → Pied du Galibier (Valloire).

Your AI ride analysis

On the Col du Galibier you were about 48 minutes clear of the M3 median, and even on the Col de la Croix de Fer you gained close to 38 minutes — climbing is clearly your weapon this year. Your tightest margin came on the short Télégraphe→Valloire flat, where you were still about 4.5 minutes up on the category median. Finishing 153rd out of 12,733 with a clean sweep across every segment, there's nothing to patch here — just keep building on that climbing engine for the next stage race.
