Starlight has already quietly let slip a massive reduction in prize money, from €50,000 for the race winner to only €2,000. The race’s social media has been silent since July 12, 2022, and the route announcement for the 2023 edition went completely off the radar, with only a Google link posted to the website and no announcements whatsoever.
The organizers are also having trouble scraping together the money to broadcast 90 minutes of each stage. Not good.
