In two previous posts I had a look at the rankings at differents splits and the top overtakers. In this brief post I will dig deeper into who were the best of their starting groups.

First a graphs showing the winners of each starting group!

Below we have a table for each eleven start groups with top 20 skiers from each. For the complete data, probably including yourself, download an Excel file from here with a tab per startgroup!
