Make a race card
Pick the route and the laps: every sprint, KOM, climb and arch is placed at its race km. Add what only the race guide knows (which segments score, what each arch gives), then load the card into the Director Sportif.
The card
Untick what you don't want called. Scored: the segment counts in this race. For an arch, pick the power-up the race guide says it gives.
| km | What | Name | Scored / power-up | Note |

Bike and wheels for this course
Your picks
Your size, the power you race at and the bikes you own: your own bikes at their stages against everything you could ride at your level. Kept in this browser for next time; sent only to work out the answer, not kept.
Equipment from Zwift Insider's speed tests (zwiftinsider.com/charts-frames), run over this route's own profile and surfaces, solo at equal power: reproduces their flat-test speeds to within 0.1%. In a pack the aero part of every gap shrinks; the climbs and the decisive bit matter most.
Loading it into the Director Sportif
- In the Director Sportif window, open the settings (the gear) and the Race card tab.
- Import a card and pick the file you downloaded.
- Set your plan for it there (contest, position or skip each segment; use or keep each power-up). On race day the card is used by itself when you're on its route.
Positions come from Zwift's own route data. Arch power-ups change from race to race, so they start as "unknown" until you set them.
