T-Bob Posted July 1, 2015 Share So how much does it take to run a top level Pro team? Well Team Sky has just released their budgets and books from 2014 and the answer is.... a lot!! But no where near as much as it the total marketing budget of Sky corporation (Team Sky works out to be about 2% of total budget). Report is pre Konig and Roche signing, pre Wiggins leaving and buried in the article it seems that Porte is going to BMC next year. Check out the numbers from the utterly forgetable 2014 for Team Sky! http://inrng.com/2015/07/team-sky-budget-finances/#more-25466 Apparently Lotto-Jumbo rolls on about 10M Euros. Team Sky budget was £24,479,000 / 31.4 Euros. Wage bill of £18.2m / 23.1 Euros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinnyone Posted July 2, 2015 Share Yep! and don't forget that to sponsor equipment you have to add in a cash amount for the team to consider using your product, so Pinarello for example will give lets say 50 bikes/frames to the team and then pay lets say 50 000 Euro to the team...these figures are guesses but this is how the teams roll - not just Sky...
