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 M4 median was on Col du Télégraphe 29:24 slower.

Your AI ride analysis

The toughest climb of your day was the Col du Telegraphe, costing close to 29.4 minutes against the M4 median -- the largest gap of the race. The Galibier descent and the Col de la Croix de Fer were also significant, giving up over 17.35 and close to 14.9 minutes respectively. Every segment on the route ended up behind category, and your climbers' classification finished more than 58 minutes over the benchmark, matching a general rank of 10,876 out of 12,733. Since the Telegraphe carries the single biggest chunk of lost time, working on pacing that specific middle climb -- not going into it already depleted from the Croix de Fer -- is the clearest place to start.
