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 key climber / super-domestique rider for XDS Astana — Climber. That job pays €379k–1M a year at a team of this size. Inside that range he sits at 70%, from his results in the two seasons up to 2024 (2 wins, 10 podiums) and his age at signing (26). Every unreported salary at XDS Astana is then scaled by 0.68×, because the pay bands add up to 47% more than the team's estimated wage bill. 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.
