Apparently, in general, the teams were divided according to 2023, with the confirmation that Jumbo-Visma and Soudal-QuickStep will remain apart with separate titles. The teams Human Powered Health, from the United States, and Bolton Equities Black Spoke, from New Zealand, due to a lack of sponsors, were unable to remain on the published list.
Since the beginning of the year, the UCI announced that competition rules would be stricter and in order to request and renew licenses, it was necessary to include information on sponsors, budgets, bank guarantees, athletes’ contracts and team structure. After sending the documents, the institution will carry out an evaluation that will authorize the teams to remain, which will be announced in December 2023.
According to the rules written in the UCI documents, the men’s and women’s teams can renew or terminate contracts with athletes so that the rosters for the WorldTour and Pro Team can be complete.
