After nearly reaching 100 victories in 2025, UAE Team Emirates presents itself in 2026 even more aggressive and with riders capable of winning anywhere.

The phenomenon, needless to say, is Tadej Pogacar, priced at 92 million . This year he could be the first rider in history to surpass the 100-mark.

Among the men in the general classification are Joao Almeida at 55 million who will ride the Giro and Vuelta, then Del Toro at 40, Vine at 27, McNulty at 26 and Adam Yates at 24.

There are also plenty of top class riders for one-day races and many of them remain quite expensive: Wellens (19), Narvaez (21), Christen (13), while Cosnefroy (2), Politt (8) and Vermeersch (6) could be valid low cost alternatives.

Finally, watch out for the very young Spaniards Torres (1) and Pericas (1), who could explode at any moment, like Del Toro in 2024.
