The legs

Fastest and median time on each leg. No speeds: these sheets carry no course distances, and a km/h over a distance nobody published would be a guess.

What would it have taken? 🎯

Pick a place — overall or in your category — and this gives the time that produced it that year, plus what the athletes around it actually did on each leg.

The finish time is read off the real 2026 results curve (interpolated between sampled places — measured worst case 14 s on a six-hour time). The section times are the median of the eleven athletes who finished within five places of 100 overall, so they are what people around that place actually rode, not a model of how to pace it. They will not add up to the finish time: a median per section is not one rider’s race, and on some courses the timed sections do not cover every kilometre.

Leg by leg: who was where

The top 10’s overall position at the end of each leg, as the timekeeper published it. Up is better. Five points rather than a mat-by-mat trace: this edition times the leg boundaries and nothing in between.

4 overall

The fastest single split on each leg, whoever it belongs to — several of these are not the race winner, and the transitions are usually won by someone well down the overall order.
