In recent weeks, there has been a constant discussion about the cyclocross schedules of Mathieu van der Poel, Wout van Aert, and Tom Pidcock. In this scenario, the withdrawals of Van Aert and Pidcock from the World Cup have been frequently addressed.

Tom Pidcock receives 10,000 Euros per race, according to Het Nieuwsblad.

Wout van Aert will start his cyclocross season this Saturday. Van Aert will kick off his Cyclocross season in Essen on Saturday, December 9, while Pidcock and Van der Poel will do so on December 16 (Herentals) and December 22 (Mol), respectively. Of course, all organizers aim to attract the “Big Three,” although the acquisition process is a bit more challenging. It’s worth noting that it’s the race organizers themselves who pay these amounts to the cyclists per race.
