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.

See the whole VC Pays de Saint-Flour club page →

Among classified finishers from this club only, ties sharing a place. This is not the club classification, which scores each club on its 3 best times.

Strong across the board: you beat the M1 median on every climb and descent — closest margin on Télégraphe → Pied du Galibier (Valloire).

Your AI ride analysis

Looking at the 790th-of-12,733 finish (in the top 10%), there simply isn't a weak segment: every split beat or matched your category peers. Nowhere was that more visible than on the Col du Galibier, where you beat your M1 median by 27 minutes. You beat or matched your M1 category median on every timed segment of the route. The nearest thing to a weak spot was the Télégraphe → Pied du Galibier (Valloire), and even there you finished 3 minutes ahead of your M1 median. Keep building on that climbing form — it's clearly your biggest asset on a route like this one.
