Basics - Teams

Divisions

Teams are divided into three divisions:

Features the 35 most prestigious races and tours, where the 18 best teams compete against each other.

This intermediate division is made up of 18 teams, with a calendar that is shared between Continental races and possible invitations to prestigious Cya World Tour races.

This is the lowest level of professional cycling. The teams can only take part in races on the Continental calendar.

Strengths and weaknesses

The strengths and weaknesses of the teams are visible in the radar diagram during the choice of a team at the start of a game.

These averages are translated into radar diagrams, like the one below, taking into account the attributes of the main types of riders in the team: Stage races, Hills, Cobblestones, Sprint and Time-trial.

Here, for example, we have two teams: N°1 specialised in mountain and stage races, N°2 in cobblestones and flat terrain.

Team N°1 is therefore better adapted to the multiple stages of the Tour de France, whereas team N°2 will perform better in the northern classics that are raced in a single day.
