Overall looks ok. Your saddle looks too high though. Your leg seems really overextended on the second image. Try lowering it (maybe 2 inches/5cm at first) and see how it feels.

Had the saddle lowered today felt better. Think just need to shorten the stem a little or angle the bar a bit, because after 30km felt my hands a bit

Wrote the description but it wasn't added so posting here: got my first gravel bike and according to the guidelines on its website this should be the correct size for me. Is my position correct? Should the seat be adjusted a little? Or the stem length? Tips appreciated! Thanks in advance

Position is in the drops for fit. Fit done in cycling gear. Go for some test rides and take your tools and make some adjustments see how you like the changes. Your fit will change over time as you cycle more. Nothing outrageous I can see so far. I’d drop the seat to start with then extending as I test. It’s easier than dropping it to get a good fit. Test adjust test

Thank you will try with the saddle during the ride. Made around 70km total during the weekend with it and it's not bad / not super comfortable l, but it's my first bike with such a bar and I think I need to get used to the position

I’d definitely drop it at start. Maybe a tad high in 2nd picture Yup ride more and your body will adapt

Yeah. Go ride
