I am absolutely sure that who so ever chooses this sport does not go for it for money. Its the love and honesty they represent for this sport
Sorry this is absolutely ridiculous for the most difficult sport
How much did the person get that won The OPEN get for a weekend of golf.
they get paid more. clueless post, sponsors pay so much aswell. free stuff. expensive sport. and there's lots of black money.
25 millions are not enough for this great endurance performances! ❤
In contrast, the single winner of the men's and women's Wimbledon Championships gets . . . £2,700,000 each!
What's even worse is that most riders have at least (3) bikes...not including time trial bike. Even if they win a green/polka-dot jersey, it wouldn't pay for most teams' main and backup bikes for that rider. Horrible ROI.
While TV commentary, commercials and sponsorships are worth gazillions of Euros. What a shame for these riders to be treated like modern-day slaves.
@@Dhamirs I think UAE pay Tadej around €6m per season - and that's excluding prize money and sponsorships. It's peanuts compared to other sports, but he's not going to bed hungry.
compared to how much a bike is, nutritionist, trainers, medical people involved in the sport, they get very little return compare to other sports
Chump change for the extraordinary efforts and entertainment value. I could say the same for jazz musicians, but I digress.
I think the prize money of the winner is just a bonus because each rider has a guaranted contract money from their respective team. And the team is only after on the advertisement of their products aside from the prize money.
While bench players of other sports make an easy 1 million just keeping seats warm for the starters haha. So sad that's why we need POGI & JONAS & Remco throwing words for the drama etc. It's entertaining which will bring views which brings in money.
The sprinters, with all the risk of dying if they crash get almost nothing which is ridicules.
@allisonking785 - That's why they need more. More views, drama etc will bring more money. There are other spots that are life risking as well & those sport get paid more than cyclists with very little commitment/risk to something like a grand tour. Without risk/valor there will not be any glory/triumphant.
Tadej is on €6-7 million per year excluding prize money and sponsorships. He's doing well, man. Ineos, Visma, UAE and a few other teams operate with massive budgets.
@issahgyandi3365 - still doesn't compare to a NBA or NFL player. Bench player easily makes a million not counting their outside pay. That's what I'm talking about. You think a mid or super domestiqe makes that? Nope. Maybe someone like Sepp or Wout but look what they have to do before even making that type of pay but a kid out of college can make that already when they get drafted. Numbers don't lie. Look at mid level NBA or NFL player that has never got mvp or some sort of accolade can make what Tade makes in a course of 2 to 3 years in their game.
Of course, those sports have ACTION able to be shown on TV--> Cycling has zero action worth mentioning and the ability to capture that action is VERY expensive compared to those other sports. Likewise the common populace almost NO ONE goes bike riding competitively whereas football, everyone has played and knows the rules etc.
It’s absolutely shocking how low they get paid comparing with other sports. Cycling is the hardest sport. Can you please elaborate why cyclists make less than other sports like tennis etc
Lack of viewer interest.
Track and Field/marathon/swimming make even less... whine whine whine whine... They make zero money because NO ONE WATCHES as they aren't monetizable and there is ~zero action(boring)--> Just like cycling. Money in vrs money out is very low for TV as common person does not care.
Thanks for this one! This is a detail that I was never informed of. Pretty cool.
Compared to football and tennis the prize money for cyclists is *ridiculously low!* Outrageous!
Football wages are obscene. Not one footballer could do a stage of the TDF. I’m sure everyone of the cyclists in this years TDF could play a game of football. The England team is overrated they scraped through to the final and lost. They should not be payed for their performance
@@harryboy3305 You don't sound too smart. The comparison would be closer to: Could a pro footballer do a tour in 3 months or something to that effect. Because none of the peloton would do ANYTHING in a pro football game either.
Footballers get paid that much because there's global interest in football - no one, other than people like us, gives a shit about cycling.
Remco is NOT the FIRST Belgian to be white jersey winner. Merckx won the Tour at 24years old and would have been the FIRST Belgian white jersey winner if that competition was available
This channel love Bini from day one and in asmera we call it Bini channel 😅
Hahahhahaha love that! Bini is a great role model and a super nice person :)
Congratulations to all the victors... and their supportive team members.
So sad, so many watch, more than almost all other sports, and yet so little monies 😢
Er du fra Danmark
Does every team member get an equal share of the prize money?
Tour de france organizers mafia
Cycling as a sport has next to zero ticket sales. They only make money from sponsors, cities paying to be part of the race, and tv deals. Also the race is not entertaining except the final sprint of most stages. Despite it being an amazing sport and it has the toughest athletes, it isn’t a very good business model.
Good thing their real salaries don't come from the races prizes... Riders and team participate to a race for exposure : the more their are seen, the most likely they will attract a good sponsor that's ready to cash in millions for the riders, the staff, the logistics and équipements... 600.000 € for Tadej who won the Tour with 6 stages and 19 days with the yellow jersey is pocket money compared to his 8 millions euros annual salary.
@TheNyxmaster - haha yeah but look what he's done. While a kid in euro soccer can make 100 million as soon as he gets onto a team and hasn't won a championship yet haha.
why so low payment despite the toughest sports
I understand there would be a lot of overhead costs when organising, filming and coordinating the entire Tour. Yet the organisers charge alot of the departures ans arrival cities and towns and extraordinary amount of money to host, plus sponsors, plus endorsements of their own, so surely they can pay the riders more as they are the stars! The very same happened with the PGA. Players threatened to leave and they got their payrise. Cyclists should strike
In contrast, the single winner of the men's British OPEN 2024 gets . . . $3,100,000 4 Days soft GOLF... TDF HELL RIDE for like 19 DAYS Suffer... John Rahm LIVE GOLF 200 milj USD - for like 4 year contract, think the organizer of TOURS needs to step up on the prize money walls to the cyclist...
Cycling isn't producing alot of money to be fair..
The Euro tiddlywinks championship winner probably gets more money than the winner of TDF
Don’t know where you get your information but you’re totally in lala land maybe 20 years ago but in 2024 the amount of money is in the 100 millions
prove it!
In reality, the winner distributes the prize money to his team mates.
OMG there were a few riders who won 500+ EUR ??? this is just embarassing to #ASO
Very lousy prize to TDF. 😭😭😭
Roland Garros way more better with ~EUR60k
So if Jasper Philipsen isn’t penalized does Girmay still win?
No Jasper was paid off to let Bini win the green
@@rambo2742 lies
Yes he does
Yes hé does. Remember, Biniam too was penalized 10 points. If both riders get their points back. Biniam would still be ahead by 13.
@@rambo2742this could only come from a pathological lier.
The prize are ridiculously small for this big event..
Pay all bikers $200.000 a day.
This is peanuts
The real question is how much did Bini pay his doctor
How so?
@@rambo2742 Looks like you're upset Bini won the Green Jersey. Find another sport to follow cause Bini will keep on giving you headaches with his victories for the next decade.
Bini paid his doctor the same amount that Pogacar paid his doctor. Rambo you cockroach!🪳
The real question is how much did Pogacar paid his doctor
@@savagepro9060 Pogi doesn't have a doctor he's an alien
