Hello, I am watching the Giro d'Italia and I see that Alberto Contador has many points for the King of the Mountains because of his attacks on the final climb of the stage. How can I see how many points for King of the Mountains will I get if I finish a stage in a first, second or third place on summit finish? When I start a stage, I see only how many points for the sprint classification will I get. |

The points that are shown then are mountain clasisfication points. They will not count as sprint classification points when ending on a mountain top. |

In the Giro they actually do count as sprint points, how do you thing Alberto is leading the points classification.

If it's true, fine. But Contador is also leading the points classification because of his 2 victories and 4 second places. That's why I think they count for the sprint classification too.
Edit: I have seen that sam1196 have written the same thing just before me.

i think that In-game the points that you get for a flat stage win also count for a stage win uphill so it's the same amount of points for each stage in the Giro. That's why the game only shows the mountain points cause they are not the same for each Mountain finish thara's a difference if the finishing mountain is 1st or 2nd class.

I thought you could only export startlist and events in-game but i don't think you can export an overview of all KoM sprints or Sprints or has PCM still some secrets left?

KenL, thanks for the screenshots, but I knew where I can see that sprint information. The problem is that I didn't know if I get mountain points when I win a stage with summit finish. I was confused because when I click the final sprint, there are points unlike the mountain sprints where you get "mountain". However, if sam1196 is right that these are mountain points and you also get sprint points, it's just fine for me. But it is for all the races, not only the Giro d'Italia, isn't it?

IRL each race has it's own rules about it but i'm not sure in-game.

Usually in game all races (or at least most of them) offers 'sprint' points for every stage, that's why I've seen lots of time climbers winning green in TdF, which really annoys me (that's why I usually take out 'sprint' points on mountain stages in some races).
Of course, that can vary with the classification file. Some DBs can come with other classifications files (Program Files/Cya/PCM/Classifications) that have different values.
Lastly, if I understood right, your doubt is: when go to the space bar window, sprints, and click on the last one during a MTF stage, the values would appear as 'sprint' points, not 'mountain' points, right? Unfortunately, I don't know how to see the 'mountain' points given, which is really a pity, but I'm also curious to know if there is how.
Ps, @KenL: quite a hard stage to be a TdF flat one, huh?
