The points classification in the Vuelta a España is a secondary classification in the Vuelta a España, in which the cyclists are ranked in a points classification based on the stage rankings. ==History == For the first time, a points classification was calculated in 1945, sponsored by Pirelli. It was calculated as follows: *The winner of a stage received 100 points, the second 99, and so on. If cyclists arrived in a group that was given the same time, they all received the same number of points. *The first five cyclists in a stage received 12 points for every minute that they arrived ahead of the number six of the stage. *For every point scored for the mountains classification, two points were given for this points classification. *On intermediate sprints, points could be won: 8 for the winner, 6 for the second, 4 and 2 for the next. Although the sponsor said that the classification was a great success, it did not return the next edition. The next time that a points classification was calculated, was in 1955. Then it used the method of adding the stage ranks, in the same way as the points classification in the Tour de France did then. Seán Kelly and Laurent Jalabert, with 4 titles each, share the record of victories. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Points classification in the Vuelta a España」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
