Grand Prix des Jeunes (1970 and 1971)

In 1970 and 1971, there was a Grand Prix des Jeunes in the Tour de France, an early version of the young rider classification that was introduced in 1975.

The info below is about 1970; I also have info about the Grand Prix des Jeunes in 1971.

If a rider is listed here without a question mark, I'm pretty sure they were in the general classification. If there is a question mark, I'm not sure. If a rider isn't listed here, I'm pretty sure they weren't in the classification.

Neo-pros (riders in their first or second professional year) were included in this classification, and the first neo-pro in a stage received 10 points, the second 6, the third 4, the fourth 2, and the fifth 1.
