Urumaze: you crossed the line 23rd of 53 by Sauce's live count (the official results may differ). In a group you wasted about 19 W on average. 12 W was where you sat: ok (under 10 W is good, over 20 W costly), mostly from getting less draft than your gap should give (the wheel moving about, or you off its line). The other 7 W went into pushing into the wheel ahead (blocked: power that vanishes when you ride into a wheel instead of past it). You lost your group on Climb, 37 m.

Position cost is what your spot cost you over the section, as a share of your FRC (the 16 kJ you can spend above FTP): what it took from your sprint or the last climb. Over a long section that's the size of it, not what was gone at the top, since FRC refills below FTP. The ▶ links open the video 15 s before each section, for the approach.
Where you rode
44 min in a group of 3 or more, 1 min with one other rider, 2 min alone. In a group, the spot itself cost 84.4 kJ beyond Zwift's draft (pack cost), and pushing into wheels cost 17.6 kJ more (blocked).
| In a group, you were | Time | |
|---|---|---|
| in a good spot | 21 min (47%) | |
| short of draft on a wheel | 14 min (31%) | |
| boxed in | 5 min (11%) | |
| too close to the wheel | 2 min (5%) | |
| too far off the wheel | 1 min (2%) | |
| on the front | 1 min (1%) |

Your CdA
0.284, read from your draft: Zwift gives every rider a draft that tops out at a fixed share of their own air drag, so the top of yours tells us your CdA (your bike, wheels and size, as Zwift has them), without your power or weight.
The numbers we used
CdA 0.284 (measured from your draft); weight 77.7 kg, height 177.8 cm, FTP 234 W. Position = the watts your spot cost against the ideal spot at your speed: the Director Sportif's meters, recomputed over the whole ride with our full pack models (fitted on recorded Zwift races and group rides; the free mod carries a simplified version).
