Salary by season
Reported Model
Base salary only: bonuses, prize money and personal sponsors come on top.
How this estimate is made. In 2024, when this contract was signed, he was a neo-pro rider for Netcompany INEOS — Neo / new to WT. That job pays €82k–309k a year at a team of this size. Inside that range he sits at 60%, from his results in the two seasons up to 2024 (0 wins, 0 podiums) and his age at signing (20). Salaries are set when a contract is signed and run to its end, so results since 2024 do not change this figure — they change the market value above. Measured error against the 28 reported salaries: median 25.0%. See the test · Full method · Why the number sticks.

Turned pro in 2023. Points and wins per season from ProCyclingStats. Prize money is what the rider generated at WorldTour and ProSeries races (from 2022) — pooled with the team, not kept. Generated since 2022: €13k.
