Jumbo Visma hold the yellow and green jerseys at the Tour de France - with Jonas Vingegaard and Wout van Aert - and have won three stages on the race so far. Van Aert claimed victory on stages 4 and 8 while Vingegaard won stage 11 to Col du Granon.

And those results - not to mention holding the yellow and green jerseys for most of the race - have seen Jumbo Visma win more than twice as much prize money so far as the next best team, Ineos Grenadiers.

Jumbo Visma have scooped €111,350, with Ineos Grenadiers on €50,970 while BikeExchange-Jayco has won €45,950. UAE Team Emirates are next with €44,450 while EF Education EasyPost has won €44,420 so far. Bottom of the pile is Astana Qazaqstan on €2,340 and when you factor in the fines imposed on them - for littering and so on - they are in the red.

A total of around €2.3m will be won by the teams and riders through the race, including €500,000 to the winner of the final individual general classification.
