The division into categories is interesting for the evaluation of the dotted jersey . For example, the winner of a mountain classification in the fourth category was awarded one point, and the winner of mountains in categories 3 and 2 was awarded two and five points, respectively. The first received ten points on a mountain in the first category, while hors-catégorie climbs earned the winner 20 points in the mountain classification. At the Col du Portillon ( 16th stage ), at the Col de Portet ( 17th stage ) and at the Col d'Aubisque( 19th stage ) the points were doubled.
