points classification in the Tour de France
Let an agent explain the points classification of the Tour de France, relay rules, history and winners from cycling sources, describe how points are awarded and the green jersey, and distinguish it from the general classification, the mountains classification, the young rider classification and points classifications of other races.
Research draft, second pass
A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description
Let an agent explain the points classification of the Tour de France, relay rules, history and winners from cycling sources, describe how points are awarded and the green jersey, and distinguish it from the general classification, the mountains classification, the young rider classification and points classifications of other races.
A secondary classification of the Tour de France, introduced in 1953, that awards points for finishing positions on stages and at intermediate sprints, with more points on flat stages, so that it usually favours sprinters; its leader wears the green jersey, and Peter Sagan holds the record of seven wins, ahead of Erik Zabel s six consecutive titles from 1996 to 2001, although Zabel later admitted doping in that period.
What it is for: Rewarding consistent high stage finishes.
It can be explain rules; relay history and winners; describe the green jersey; distinguish other classifications.
