How are Tour Points awarded for the overall classification in a Grand Tour?
At the end of the tour, bonus Tour Points go to the riders with the lowest total times: 3/2/1 in a 3-7 stage tour, 4/3/2/1 in 8-14 stages, and 5/4/3/2/1 in 15-21 stages. They follow total time alone, so the rider with the lowest time need not hold the most Tour Points.
