Why are you forced to race in both time trial & road race national champs if you have only one eligible rider?
Say I have one brit on my squad and I want him to do the road race not the time trial. This seems impossible though as he is also forced to do the time trial. |

Don't think that is normal to be honest. It could be caused by the fact that ITT and RR are placed on the same day by mistake but I doubt it.

Isn't there a tick mark by which you can select and un-select the rider before the start of the race in the 'Registered Riders' page? It's there in PCM 14. Should be there in PCM 15 as well.

I always thought that you have to use at least one rider for any NC that some of your riders are eligible for. As a result, if you have one rider from some country, he will be forced to do both ITT and RR. It might be that I just haven't found a way how to decline participation inside the game. What I usually do when I care about this issue is that I edit the race participations manually with a db editor. You might be able to bypass this completely by setting the lower limit for the number of participants per team in NCs to 0. I would guess this would cause some bug(s), since otherwise I don't see why Cyanide wouldn't do this by default. |

You are correct. If you have only one eligible rider then they are forced to do both. If you try and untick the rider, you get a 'team selection is not valid' (or some such wording message) and can't progress. |

What happens if your one British guy is racing at another race on the day of the NC? Does the game recognise this and not make you send any riders? Just asking because it may be an issue in my current career (albeit in the 2014 game) as the Columbian NC is about to come but my two Columbian riders are both at the GP Pais Vasco. |

I don't think you can take part to the NC in that case.
