Vinokourov: “Our team does not encounter any difficulties”
But nothing alarming, the manager told Cyclingnews. “During the process of submitting documents for confirmation of our WorldTour license, a question arose regarding the wording of the bank guarantee document, and clarification was requested, which the team provided,” explains Vinokourov.
“Unfortunately, additional coordination between the banks required some time, which is why our team was not included in the list published by the UCI today,” adds Vinokourov. Regardless, the registration and license confirmation process with the UCI is proceeding according to requirements, and our team does not encounter any difficulties. » The team Ceratizit-WNT mentioned the same reasons.
Note that the 17 teams applying for men’s ProTeam status are the same as this season.
