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

The 54th fastest Stephane of 103 (all spellings of Stephane, including Stéphane). The quickest one did 6:53:32, the median Stephane 10:01:30.

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.

Room to improve: your biggest relative loss vs. the M7 median was on Col du Galibier 43:17 slower.

Your AI ride analysis

At 6,933rd in M7, the Col du Galibier was a real outlier in an otherwise strong day: over 43 minutes slower than the category median, more than triple the gap of any other segment. You beat median comfortably on the Croix de Fer, the Maurienne descent and the Télégraphe, so this reads as a one-off bad patch on the Galibier specifically — possibly nutrition or pacing related — rather than a broad climbing weakness. Rehearsing your fueling and effort plan for that particular climb before your next attempt is the most targeted fix.

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.
