With last Thursday's live broadcast, we began to reveal the expected prices of the riders for 2023 . Not without discussions, which are part of the game, and some surprises, the Fantacycling team proposed the first five teams with the relative cost of each individual component at the start of next season, already scheduled for mid-January with the Tour Down Under.

The live presence of sporting director Davide Bramati and Mattia Cattaneo did not catch us unprepared, so much so that Soudal Quick Step was one of the first formations involved in our presentation.

Obviously Remco Evenepoel takes the lion's share: the world champion now costs 60 fantamillion , a sharp rise after the exploits of 2022 with victories in Liège, San Sebastian, the World Cup and the Vuelta.

The young Belgian precedes Julian Alaphilippe , who has not been without controversy due to a quotation of 44 fantamillion , an increase compared to the rather disappointing end of last season.

The sprinters are still protagonists: Fabio Jakobsen costs 34 credits while the new signing Tim Merlier has reached 32. Whoever bets on them will probably have to choose only one in order not to go over the budget (which at the beginning will always be 500 fantamillions for 30 runners).

Among the riders to take into consideration are Kasper Asgreen at 25 , looking for redemption, Andrea Bagioli at 16 , ready to make the leap in quality, and Mauro Schmid at 14 , a Swiss suited to classics and stage victories.

If you need low-cost emerging names there are Ilan Van Wilder at 4 , the sprinter Ethan Vernon at 3 and, if you like to take risks, the very young Slovakian talent Martin Svrcek, born in 2003, at 1 .
