For the general classification, calculated by adding each cyclist's finishing times on each stage, and allowing time bonuses (10, 6 and 4 seconds respectively) for the first three finishers on mass-start stages, the leader received a yellow jersey. Additionally, there were a points classification, awarding a green jersey, and mountains classification, the leadership of which was marked by a polka dot jersey. The fourth jersey represents the young rider classification, marked by a white jersey. This was decided the same way as the general classification, but only young riders were eligible.
