The mountains classification leader. The climbs were ranked in first and second categories. In this ranking, points were won by reaching the summit of a climb ahead of other cyclists. There were two categories of mountains.[5] The first category awarded 10, 7, 5, 3, and 1 points, while the second distributed 5, 3, and 1 points.[5] Although no jersey was awarded, there was also one classification for the teams, in which the teams were awarded points for their rider's performance during the stages.
