Tour de France classifications

Le Tour’s various classifications are designed to showcase all different types of cyclists, from the hardiest stayers to the zippiest sprinters. To be a successful bettor on Le Tour de France, you need to understand these different stages, and how they might impact each rider. Here’s how Le Tour de France classifications they work:

General classification

Awarded each year since 1903, the general classification is the oldest and most prestigious title on offer at the Tour de France. The winner is determined by tallying each rider’s aggregate time over the course of all 21 stages. Throughout the race, the leader of the general classification earns the right to wear the coveted yellow jersey.

Mountains classification

Introduced in 1933, the Tour de France mountain classification rewards those who perform best during the race’s gruelling alpine stages. The number of points available depends on the difficulty of the climb – for example, a total of 97 points are dished out to the first 10 climbers to complete the longest, steepest ascents. The classification leader wears the distinctive white jersey with red polka dots and the winner is declared King of the Mountains.

Points classification

The points classification was introduced in 1953 in a bid to attract sprinters to Le Tour. Points are awarded to the first 15 riders across the line at the end of each stage. There are also bonus points for the first 15 riders to reach designated sprint zones within stages. Whomever finishes with the most points wins the green jersey, which is worn by the points leader throughout the race.

Young rider classification

The young rider title has undergone several changes over the years. Originally, only riders in their first three years on the professional circuit were eligible. In 1983, the classification was restricted to only those who were competing in Le Tour for the first time. That lasted until 1987, when the rules were broadened to include all riders under the age of 26. Within those guidelines, the white jersey is awarded in the same manner as the general classification.
