Sergio Higuita
How this estimate is made. XDS Astana's riders' wage pool is about €10.1M (budget €25M × 40%, 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 29. Half of the estimate comes from the same allocation run league-wide, so leaders of small teams aren't over-priced. Floor for this rider: €137k. Typical error on a single rider is ±40%, which is the range shown above. Full method.
