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.

Room to improve: your biggest relative loss vs. the M6 median was on Descente du Galibier — 13:20 slower.

Your AI ride analysis

Your day in M6 wrapped up at 8493th of 12733, and it's worth seeing which segments drove that. The clearest gap opened on Descente du Galibier, where you ran roughly 13 minutes slower than the M6 median. By contrast, on Col de la Croix de Fer you were actually about 2 minutes quicker than the median — proof your legs were working. Spending time on descending technique and line choice on descents like Descente du Galibier would likely make up real seconds there.

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.
