How this estimate is made. In 2023, when this contract was signed, he was a experienced domestique rider for Netcompany INEOS — Domestique. That job pays €206k–515k a year at a team of this size. Inside that range he sits at 38%, from his results in the two seasons up to 2023 (0 wins, 0 podiums) and his age at signing (28). Salaries are set when a contract is signed and run to its end, so results since 2023 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.
