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.

Room to improve: your biggest relative loss vs. the M8 median was on Col du Galibier 32:46 slower.

Your AI ride analysis

Across the board, this was an off day relative to your category, and the Col du Galibier is where it hurt most. The Col du Galibier was the worst of it — about 33 minutes behind the M8 median, the single biggest gap of the day. Your closest section to the pace was the Start → Pied de la Croix de Fer, and even there you were still about 8 seconds off the M8 median. Given the pattern, the priority isn't the Col du Galibier specifically so much as pacing the whole stage more conservatively from the start, so the deficit doesn't compound the way it did here.
