If several worlds separate the Male Tour de France from the Tour de France female from an economic and financial point of view – much less from a popular point of view – it is the same inside each category. Thus, while the team of Pauline Ferrand-Prévot, the Bisma-Lease A Bike collected no less than 76,190 euros, others, on the other hand, touched Peanuts, or almost.
This is the case of the French team Winspace Orange Seal invited on the Tour, which has not left after nine days of racing with … 290 euros! It is barely less than for Labor Kutxa – Fundacion Euskadi (310 euros) or Roland Le Devoluy (320 euros). In total, six training courses received less than 1,000 euros in premiums, including three of the five teams invited on this 2025 Tour.
700,000 euros in bonuses for the male team of UAE
If this is easily explained by the performances carried out during the large loop, the Visma – Lease A Bike team having won the general classification and two stages with Pauline Ferrand -Prévot while Winspace Orange Seal only returned once in the top 20 of a stage on this tower (Nadia Gontova, 10th in the last step), the sums perceived by the second zone teams are frankly ridiculous.
Among men, by way of comparison, the UAE team from Tadej Pogacar left France with full pockets, with just over 700,000 euros in various and varied premiums while Cofidis, the least well -off team, came out with 15,510 euros. Let’s specify all the same that men ran 21 days while women are only nine days of racing in total.
But when we see the popular craze that once again generated this large female loop, whether at the roads of the roads or behind TV, the runners will be entitled to hope for a general revaluation of the premiums next season.
