How this estimate is made. Caja Rural-Seguros RGA's riders' wage pool is about €1.8M (budget €5M × 36%, the rider-wage share rising with budget). After fixed reported salaries, the rest is split by a value score — 0.6 × 2026 PCS points + 0.4 × career points per season, raised to the power 1.15 — with an age factor of 1.0 at age 27. Half of the estimate comes from the same allocation run across all 16 ProTeams, so leaders of small teams aren't over-priced. Floor for this rider: €38k (ProTeam floors start at the UCI minimum of €35,392). Typical error on a single rider is ±40%, which is the range shown above. Full method.
