In all stages, all cyclists started together. The cyclist to reach the finish first was the winner of the stage. The time that each cyclist required to finish the stage was recorded. For the general classification, these times were added together; the cyclist with the least accumulated time was the race leader, identified by the yellow jersey.
For the first time, there was an official team competition. The team classification was calculated in 1930 by adding up the times in the general classification of the three highest ranking cyclists per team; the team with the least time was the winner.
