Classification leadershipâ»
In the 2018 Deutschland Tour, "four jerseys were awarded." The general classification was calculated by, "adding each cyclist's finishing times on each stage." Time bonuses were awarded to the first three finishers on all stages: the stage winner won a ten-second bonus, with six and four seconds for the second and third riders respectively. Bonus seconds were also awarded to the first three riders at intermediate sprints â three seconds for the winner of the sprint, two seconds for the rider in second and one second for the rider in third. The leader of the general classification received a red engraved jersey with the names of more than 1.500 supporters who participated in the route creation. This classification was considered the most important of the 2018 Deutschland Tour. And the winner of the classification was considered the winner of the race.

The leadership of the mountains classification was marked by a black jersey with white polka-dots.
