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 3rd fastest Ghislain of 3. The quickest one did 7:08:20, the median Ghislain 9:25:58.

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 M4 median was on Col du Galibier 45:23 slower.

Your AI ride analysis

This was a hard day on every part of the course for your M4 finish, 12491st out of 12,733, with the Col du Galibier the single toughest stretch at 45 minutes 23 seconds behind the category median. The connector into Valloire before the Galibier (25 minutes 40 seconds) and the Col de Sarenne (26 minutes 25 seconds) each added major further losses, and the Col du Telegraphe cost another 21 minutes 13 seconds on top. There's no segment here where the median didn't beat you. Given how uniform the deficit was across climbs, building overall climbing endurance - rather than chasing one specific segment - looks like the right focus before the next Etape.
