[2] This year was a game changer for the race on the International stage, when Slovenian Tourist Board (STB) stepped in as the new lead partnership.

They brought the race on a whole new level with broadcast on Eurosport, now available to 120 countries around the world.

Rafał Majka (Bora–Hansgrohe) won both the general and mountains classification, by taking first place at the summit finish in Rogla.

Points towards the classification could also be accrued – awarded on a 5–3–1 scale – at intermediate sprint points during each stage; these intermediate sprints also offered bonus seconds towards the general classification as noted above.

Best young rider (under 23 years) by time was awarded with white jersey.
