• For stage 1, per the race regulations, Jannik Steimle, the second-placed rider after the prologue, was assigned the green jersey of the leader of the points classification, and Marceli Bogusławski, the third-placed rider after the prologue, was assigned the polka-dot jersey of the leader of the mountains classification. However, neither rider was deemed to be officially leading those respective classifications, as no points were awarded in the prologue for either classification.^[28]
