Azzurri d'Italia classification

Azzurri d'Italia classification

Azzurri d'Italia classification (English: "Azure or Sky Blue Italy") is an award category in the Giro d'Italia in which points are awarded for the top three stage finishers (4, 2 and 1 point). It is similar to the standard points classification for which the leader and final winner are awarded the "maglia ciclamino" but no cycling jersey is awarded, only cash. For the 2007 Giro d'Italia, the Azzurri d'Italia winner won 5,000. [http://www.cyclingnews.com/road/2007/giro07/?id=/features/2007/giro_classifications07 Cyclingnews.com: Giro classifications 2007]
