Twenty five cyclists have led the overall standings in all three Grand Tours during their careers. No rider has done so in a single season.

Tadej Pogačar amassed most Grand Tour days at the top of the classification in a single calendar year - 39 in 2024.

Footnote

^
There were prologues for three Giro editions that did not count towards the general classification, but were used to determine what rider would wear the race leader's maglia rosa on the first stage of the race.
The winners of these prologues therefore wore the leader's jersey for one more day, but were not the leaders of the general classification:
- the prologue for the 1968 Giro, won by Charly Grosskost.^[1]
- the prologue for the 1971 Giro.^[2]^[3] Salvarani won the prologue and each member of their team (Gimondi, Motta, Emilio Casalini, Ottavio Crepaldi, Ercole Gualazzini, Pietro Guerra, Antoon Houbrechts, Primo Mori, Roberto Poggiali and Dino Zandegù wore a maglia rosa during the race's first stage.^[4]
- the prologue for the 1973 Giro was not a typical prologue as it was a two-man team time trial, not the normal individual time trial^[5]. Results from the stage were used to determine the first wearers of the maglia rosa and maglia ciclamino (English: mauve, or purple, jersey).^[6]^[7] The rider with the quickest time of the two winners (Merckx) would wear the pink jersey, while the second rider (Roger Swerts) wore the purple jersey.
The prologue for the 1978 Giro not only did not count towards GC, but also did not award its winner Dietrich Thurau any distinctive jersey.^[8]
