The Tour de France 2025 is about to start. With 21 days of racing at the biggest race of the year only a few days away, it’s time to take a look at just how much money is on offer for those who do well. Despite inflation, none of this has changed for this year.
The overall victor of the 2024 race, Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates) earnt €500,000 (£423,000) for winning the Tour – that’s around 20 per cent of the €2,301,200 (£1.95 million) prize purse. Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease a Bike) earned the same prize money last year.
