Participants
Results per team
The "StProb" column indicates the probability that an equally sized team would win the same number of stages, assuming each participating rider had an equal chance of winning a stage. A probability of 0.50 indicates that the team won exactly as expected, a probability close to 0 indicates that the team won fewer stages than expected, and a probability close to 1 indicates that the team won more stages than expected.
The "GCProb" and "Lexico" columns indicate how well the team performed in the overall ranking. For both, a higher number is better; GCProb ranges from minus infinity to plus infinity, with an average of 0; Lexico ranges from 0 to 1, with an average of 0.5.
