4Although the race is different in some ways, the Tour de France still includes many important traditions. One of these traditions is the awarding of colored jerseys to certain riders to set them apart from others. A white jersey is presented to the best young rider under the age of 25. A jersey with polka dots is given to the leader in the king of mountains classification. A green jersey is given to the rider who leads in the number of points. The most well-known and coveted jersey is the yellow jersey, or the mallot jaune as it is called in French. This jersey designates the leader of the race (Lake 99–102).
