  • In GT1-, GT2-, 2.WT1- and 2.WT2-races, the same amount of points is awarded to the riders in the final points classification and the final mountains classification as to those in the stage results.

  • Points for the race leader are awarded in all stages, except the last one.

Latest Changes

  • In 2013 we optimized the CQ point scales by making the speed of decrease more equal for all stage races. The same thing happened for all one-day races. While doing this, we changed the total amount of points for each category as little as possible. We still didn't look for mathematical perfection, because we wanted to keep some recognizable, well-known numbers.
  • We split up the category 2.WT in 2.WT1 (Paris-Nice, Tirreno-Adriatico, Vuelta al Pais Vasco, Dauphiné, Tour de Suisse) and 2.WT2 (the other WT-stage races).
  • More riders receive points in categories 2.1, 2.2 and NC3.
  • The points in WC U23 are now equal to NC3.
Changes are marked in blue.
