Tour de France 2018 prize money tally so far
[wpbrad id=133]
We're at the halfway point now and the battle is really hotting up at Tour de France 2018.
Some teams are in it for stage wins, others for the overall. And a small number of squads will take anything they can get.
Every day they compete for stage results and seconds or minutes in the general classification.
And it's in the latter, the final over results, where the biggest money prizes are to be found.
It means a squad like Team Sky will be likely shoot to the top of the earnings list by the time the race is over.
And those teams with sprinters, and so have had many of their biggest chances already, will have surged ahead at this point in the prize money stakes.
In a nutshell; the split of the prize money won on the opening nine stages (below) may be very different to the final picture.
But it's still well worth a look at who's won what so far; QuickStep Floors leading the way with €53,730.
The only Irish rider in the race, Dan Martin UAE Emirates is 8th of the 22 teams, with €18,220 in the bag so far.
Some €13,000 of the Irishman's team's total came from his stage 6 win and his finishing 6th and 7th on stages 5 and 10.
