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.

Your AI ride analysis

There was real variance in how the stage went for you: you lost the bulk of your time on Col du Galibier, where you were about 42 minutes slower than the M5 median. The clearest bright spot was Col du Télégraphe: about 1 second faster than the M5 median. Going forward, a block of dedicated climbing repeats before you next line up for Col du Galibier would likely close that gap.
