What Is The Green Jersey In The Vuelta

The daily winner wears a green number bib the following stage. At the end of the Vuelta, a jury decides the top three riders for the 'Most Combative Rider of La Vuelta', with a public vote deciding the victor. From 2006 to 2018, the leader of the classification wore a white jersey; in 2005 it was a golden-green jersey. The award strongly favoured top riders in the competition. Since its re-introduction in 2002, it was only been won by someone other than the race's overall winner four times: in 2002, 2003, 2012, and 2015. Recently, these other classifications have used jerseys more like those used at the Tour de France, with the points leader using a green jersey, and the King of the Mountains using a polka dot jersey (albeit blue-on-white rather than red-on-white as at the Tour). This disjointed phenomena is aptly evidenced by the sartorially contentious green jersey of Primoz Roglic, who has been the leader of the points competition since day one of the 2020 Vuelta.
