Additionally, there were the points classification (also won by Maertens), the mountains classification won by Pedro Torres, and the intermediate sprints classification also won by Maertens. To be eligible for these secondary classifications, a rider had to finish in the top 25 of the general classification; this was relevant for the intermediate sprints classification, where Daniele Tinchella and Benny Schepmans had more points than Maertens, but did not finish in the top 25.

There was also an award for the best Spanish rider in the general classification, won by Miguel María Lasa, and a team classification won by Teka.^[7]
