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.

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

Every single segment of the route went your way against the M3 median, a dominant showing that landed you 421st out of 12,733 finishers. The Galibier climb was your best result, close to 40 minutes clear of category, and the Col de la Croix de Fer wasn't far behind at nearly 32 minutes clear. Even your tightest margin -- the short flat run into Valloire -- still left you almost 4 minutes ahead of median. Your climbers' classification beat the category benchmark by more than 90 minutes across the three combined ascents. With performance at this level and no weakness in sight, the priority is simply maintaining the climbing form that's already carrying you near the front of your category.
