Overall leadership

edit

Two main individual classifications were contested in the 2023–24 Tour de Ski, as well as a team competition. The most important was the overall standings, calculated by adding each skier's finishing times on each stage. Time bonuses (time subtracted) were awarded at both sprint stages and at intermediate points during mass start stage 6. In the sprint stages, the winners were awarded 60 bonus seconds, while on mass start stage 6, the first ten skiers past the intermediate point received from 15 seconds to 1 seconds. The skier with the lowest cumulative time was the overall winner of the Tour de Ski. For the first time in Tour history, the skier leading the overall standings wore a gold bib.

The second competition was the points standings, which replaced the sprint competition from past editions. The skiers who received the highest number of points during the Tour win the points standings. The points available for each stage finish were determined by the stage's type. The leader was identified by a silver bib.

The final competition was a team competition. This was calculated using the finishing times of the best two skiers of both genders per team on each stage; the leading team was the team with the lowest cumulative time.
