  • I think he would have a very big salary at a big team as well ;-)

    The Alpecin-Fenix team is built around MVDP, so I guess that suits him fine

  • It doesn’t give him the guaranteed grand tour entries though. Though his name alone might win wild card entries to the tour.

  • AF has talked about wanting the CCC the World Tour license next season, although Circus-Wanty Gobert grabbed it. They're currently 14th in the UCI ranking, and the Roodhooft bros are keen on getting into the Grand Tours, especially the TdF; they would even think of sacrificing some of their main star's other ambitions.

    The chance of getting a wildcard is pretty big if you're the best Pro Conti team around. Also the benefit of continued Pro Conti status is: you are not required to show up at every World tour race, so you can pick and choose.
