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 M1 median on every climb and descent — closest margin on Télégraphe → Pied du Galibier (Valloire).

Your AI ride analysis

A top-550 finish, 521st overall, in M1, backed by beating the category median on every segment. The Col du Galibier was your standout, over 33 minutes clear of median, and Col de Sarenne wasn't far behind at over 23 minutes ahead. Even your closest split, the connector into Valloire, had you nearly 1 minute 42 seconds up. This was a genuinely complete performance across the board.
