UCI Announces Division 1 Teams

The UCI has announced the initial list of squads to make up the eventual 30 GS/1 first division sponsored teams.

Twenty-four teams submitted their personnel and financial details to the UCI by the December 20th registration deadline. Details for five other Division 1 candidates arrived so close to the deadline that the UCI has decided not to list them yet, and will make a final decision on January 10, while a further five teams are Division 1 candidates but have not yet fulfilled all the UCI requirements. A decision on which of those teams make the cut will also be made on January 10.

The UCI also named nine of the ten teams that make up the 'Top Club', leaving the remaining place open for the moment.
