Dear fantamanager, do you want to know which were the riders who in 2021 won the most races, participated in the most races on the international cycling calendar and who completed the most kilometers in the races? This is very interesting data because it could be useful to form your next team in 2022 or to make different and riskier choices by betting on other talents! In this case we have examined the whole UCI season, so not only the World Tour tests that are part of our game.

As for the most successful riders, three have won the most: the "usual suspects" Wout Van Aert , Tadej Pogacar and Primoz Roglic at an altitude of 13. The first Italian is Sonny Colbrelli at an altitude of 8. Well Mark Cavendish and Arnaud Demare who have won 10 and 9 times respectively. The same share of victories as the revelation Ethan Hayter and the Alpecin Fenix sprinters, Tim Merlier and Jasper Philipsen . But who was the runner who has grinded the most kilometers and participated in the most races in 2021? In both cases, the winner is Cesare Benedetti . The 34-year-old Polish rider from BORA-hansgrohe completed 90 days of racing. A curiosity: in 2021 Mathieu van der Poel ran only 34 days of road racing, winning 8 races. And will you bet on some athlete present in these special rankings?

Runners with the most days competing in 2021:

1. Cesare Benedetti (BORA-hansgrohe) - 90 days

2. Rein Taaramäe (Intermarché-Wanty Gobert) - 86 days

3. Max Walscheid (Qhubeka NextHash) - 85 days
