Registrations Open! TCAT 2025 Leg 3 Torino -> Madrid

[Glüc]

Race starts saturday so only limited time to submit your team!

And we are back for the final leg of 2025. Esqipă Velocostă have managed to win both legs so far. Are they going for the first ever season triple or is some other team gonna put a stop to this? We start in Italy again, but of course as this is the third leg we end in Madrid. That is still very far away of course as first the teams will need to cycle 3,151 km including lots of climbing and potentially (as is often the case in Spain) dealing with high temperatures as well. Vingegaard came second in tour making him the big favourite (and also by far the most expensive pick), but will he live up to expectations?

Team registrations are now open. Here team leaders can find instructions on how to register their team.

Deadline
The deadline for entries to be submitted is 13:00 CEST (Cézembre Summer Time) / 06:00 (AM) TDT (Talossan Daylight Time) on Saturday August 20th, 2025.

Team information
Each team needs to consist of 9 riders, with a combined total cost of up to 100 credits. These need to include 2 all rounders, 2 climbers, 1 sprinter, 3 unclassified riders, and 1 wildcard (which can be any category).

Generally, the credits assigned to the riders are pretty close to the consensus expection of how these riders will perform. This means it is possible to do well without much research, though of course if you do want to research your team there are many resources online, such as ProCyclingStats, various preview sites, bookmakers, and the youtube channel Ow Do Cycling. It is possible to use less than 100 credits, but this is usually not advisable.

A full list of participating riders, categories and credits can be found here. These should be mostly definitive, but should any of your picks drop out before the deadline without you noticing, Velogames will autoreplace them.

The rules for the competition can be found here. Note that we are only focused on the classic competition: 1 team that stays the same throughout the race.

The scoring system can be found here. Points are assigned daily for stage results, intermediate sprints, categorised summits, participating in breakaways, daily classification standings, and team assist points; and furthermore, a sizable chunk of points will be assigned based on the final classifications.
