==Classification leadership and minor prizes== [[File:Lance Armstrong AdH01.jpg|thumb|[[Lance Armstrong]] riding to his now-negated victory at [[Alpe d'Huez]]]] There were several classifications in the 2001 Tour de France.{{sfn|Nauright|Parrish|2012|pp=452–455}} The most important was the [[general classification in the Tour de France|general classification]], calculated by adding each cyclist's finishing times in each stage. The cyclist with the least accumulated time was the race leader, identified by the yellow jersey; the winner of this classification is considered the winner of the Tour.{{sfn|Nauright|Parrish|2012|pp=452–453}} Additionally, there was a [[points classification in the Tour de France|points classification]], which awarded a green jersey. In this classification, cyclists got points for finishing among the best in a stage finish, or in intermediate sprints. The cyclist with the most points lead the classification and was identified with a green jersey.{{sfn|Nauright|Parrish|2012|pp=453–454}} There was also a [[mountains classification in the Tour de France|mountains classification]]. The organisation had categorised some climbs as either ''[[hors catégorie]]'', first, second, third, or fourth-category; points for this classification were won by the first cyclists to reach the top of these climbs, with more points available for the higher-categorised climbs. The cyclist with the most points lead the classification and wore a white jersey with red [[polka dot]]s.{{sfn|Nauright|Parrish|2012|p=454}} The fourth individual classification was the [[Young rider classification in the Tour de France|young rider classification]], which was marked by the white jersey. This was decided in the same way as the general classification, but only riders under 26 years of age were eligible.{{sfn|Nauright|Parrish|2012|pp=454–455}} For the [[Team classification in the Tour de France|team classification]], the times of the best three cyclists per team on each stage were added; the leading team was the team with the lowest total time.{{sfn|Nauright|Parrish|2012|p=455}} In addition, there was a [[Combativity award in the Tour de France|combativity award]] given after each [[Mass start|mass-start]] stage to the cyclist considered most combative, who wore a red number bib the next stage. The decision was made by a jury composed of journalists who gave points. The cyclist with the most points from votes in all stages led the combativity classification.{{sfn|van den Akker|2018|pp=211–216}} Laurent Jalabert won this classification, and was given overall the super-combativity award.<ref name="letour-combativity-final">{{cite web|title=Tour de France 2001 – Overall combativity standings|url=http://www.letour.com/2001/us/classements.oft?service=RaceServer&RaceType=TDF&RaceYear=2001&StageNumber=2000&Language=ANG&StandingType=ICG|work=Tour de France|publisher=[[Amaury Sport Organisation]]|access-date=4 April 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20040503085737/http://www.letour.com/2001/us/classements.oft?service=RaceServer&RaceType=TDF&RaceYear=2001&StageNumber=2000&Language=ANG&StandingType=ICG|archive-date=3 May 2004|url-status=dead}}</ref> There were also two special awards each with a prize of F 20,000,<ref>{{cite news|last=Jones|first=Jeff|title=Tour News for July 4|url=http://autobus.cyclingnews.com/results/2001/tour01/news/jul04news.shtml|access-date=24 November 2019|work=[[Cyclingnews.com]]|date=4 July 2001|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150801025407/http://autobus.cyclingnews.com/results/2001/tour01/news/jul04news.shtml|archive-date=1 August 2015|url-status=live}}</ref> the [[Souvenir Henri Desgrange]], given in honour of Tour founder and first race director [[Henri Desgrange]] to the first rider to pass the summit of the [[Col de la Madeleine]] on stage 10, and the [[Souvenir Jacques Goddet]], given for the first time in honour of the second director [[Jacques Goddet]] to the first rider to pass the summit of the [[Col du Tourmalet]] on stage 14.
