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.

Strong across the board: you beat the M2 median on every climb and descent — closest margin on Télégraphe → Pied du Galibier (Valloire).

Your AI ride analysis

Take the 364th-of-12733 overall placing as the headline; the M2 segment splits are the interesting part underneath it. On the Col du Galibier climb, you picked up about 40 minutes on the M2 median, the biggest positive swing of the ride. Measured against the whole field's median rather than just M2, that same Col du Galibier climb margin holds up at roughly about 43 minutes. Every segment on the course favoured you against the M2 median — the valley transfer into Valloire at the foot of the Galibier was the narrowest margin, at about 4 minutes to the good. With every segment already inside your M2 pace, the next step is simply doing more of what worked on the Col du Galibier climb.
