Europcar have said, they have
Europcar have said, they have at least 22 riders for next season, which is too many for a Conti team in their eyes, they may be forced to cut a few.

Vacansoleil aren’t saving anything, their DS has gone to Wanty and is taking a few riders, along with finding a new title sponsor.

Leaving riders like De Gendt and Hoogerland to find contracts for themselves

The problem is, if Europcar don’t get a WT spot, they are going to cut some riders. I think IAM have more chance though

Now worries, I was just thinking, doing an update of the last stage before your account went might bring back everything 😉

Still struggling with a full start list, but going most of them in

[Gkam84]

Don’t know if it will be on
Don’t know if it will be on TV.

Stumps, what was the last stage where you had scored and your account was working?

[Gkam84]

Ok, they are open, the Milano
Ok, they are open, the Milano roster isn’t totally completed, hoping to have a full startlist tomorrow.

Its been made unlimited transfers for each race….I had it set up differently, but its Dave’s race, I was just mucking in 😉

Also, from my other thread,
Also, from my other thread, discussing teams disappearing

Champion Systems
Crelan-Euphony

They are also gone

Here you are, go work out who has enough points and who doesn’t…… http://www.uci.ch/Modules/BUILTIN/getObject.asp?MenuId=&ObjTypeCode=FILE&type=FILE&id=ODYwOTU&LangId=1

ALSO, remember that WT races are supposed to be featuring teams of 6 next year, instead of the normal 8 riders.

So that will leave more room for invites

[Gkam84]

Don’t forget that Saxo have
Don’t forget that Saxo have split from Tinkoff and are looking for another sponsor and with only a handful of points here and there might have trouble.

So with Euskaltel and Vaconsoliel gone Saxo and Katusha on dodgy ground

Trek are taking on Radioshack but their license runs out this season I believe, along with FDJ and Lotto

It currently it looks like this

License for 2014
Orica-GreenEDGE
Argos-Shimano
Belkin
Garmin
Saxo

License beyond 2014
Cannondale
AG2R
Sky
BMC
Movistar
Astana

So it leaves 11 who are there for sure. I think its going to be a struggle to get 18 teams. It may be cut to 16

The only team I can see who are fit to move up right now are IAM Cycling.

Europcar have ruled it out, Cofidis? Net-App? or Sojasun (who are also in financial trouble)
