Have we had this yet?

Rumoured salaries of the top 20 best paid riders in the world. Original research was done by an Italian sporting agency, so no-one knows how accurate it actually is. But there's some eye-opening salaries there, which goes to show that often your salary is based as much on your past performance as your recent results.

No Cav? Perhaps his personal sponsors deals don’t count.
Quintana seems expensive…
Pog seems to be a ‘we can’t afford to lose him’ salary. But do you have him or
Wout van Aert (Jumbo-Visma): €2.2 million
AND
Primoz Roglic (Jumbo-Visma): €2.0 million
AND
Mathieu van der Poel (Alpecin-Fenix): €2.0 million

I don’t think Cavendish has been troubling the top earners for the past five years. His contract at Bahrain was close to minimum wage from what I can gather, with performance bonuses, and I think it’s pretty clear last year’s deal at DQS was the same, as Leferve said as much in the media.
