  • 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]
  • On stage 2, Leon Heinschke, who was second in the young rider classification, wore the white jersey, because first-placed Eirik Lunder wore the green jersey as the leader of the points classification.
  • On stage 3, Peter Sagan, who was second in the points classification, wore the green jersey, because first-placed Álvaro Hodeg wore the yellow jersey as the leader of the general classification. On stage 4, Hodeg wore the green jersey, having switched positions with Sagan in both the general and the points classifications; Sagan wore the yellow jersey.
