Welcome back to the Pro Tour, a one year break.
Will be interesting to see where Uran and Intax... (I gave up spelling on the 3rd try) will be on the wage scale. At the moment they are on great wages. You got PT-quality GC-leaders already and are in a great spot to create a team to challenge high instead of fighting for survival

2015 Sponsors & Shirt revealed
Our focus for the upcoming year will be largely the same as last year; we will be keeping a Spanish focus and will try to expand it further during the transfers. Therefor we will most definately try to keep as much of the teamcore intact!
After three years with the team, our team and Colnago have decided to split up. We are delighted to announce Lapierre as our new bicycle supplier! After a one year leave we have again signed a contract with Nalini to supply our clothing. Furthermore, Campagnolo and Giro and ofcourse Bacardi will sponsor the team for their fifth consecutive year!
Now, the most important news; our 2015 shirt! With a new year comes a new shirt. This year we will be riding in a shirt designed by OlegTinkov and we want to thank him for the great shirt and all the effort he put in! The colours will once again be black, white and gold. And, of course, the Bacardi-bat will also stay.

Awesome work by Oleg, this is maybe the best jersey i have seen so far from 2015, loving the bat and other details.
Good luck in 2015, you have the potential to be one of the best from promoted teams for sure.

Released rders
Nationality | Last name | First name | Age | | Bagdonas | Gediminas | 30 | | Kocjan | Jure | 31 | | | Kruopis | Aidis | 29 | | | Perget | Mathieu | 31 | |
Badonas, Kocjan, Kruopis & Perget have been part of Bacardi since the very start back in 2011. Unfortunately, with our shifting priorities, we have decided to not renew their contract. We would like to thank them for their services over the years.
For the upcoming transfers, we will most likely keep the core of our team intact and strenghten it further. Certain riders might end up leaving if a similar rider gets signed, but it will all depend on how the transfer season plays out.

Definitely staying
| Aberasturi | Jon | 26 | € 80 000 | | Bilbao | Pello | 25 | € 190 000 | | Iturria | Mikel | 23 | € 70 000 | | Mancuso | Salvatore | 29 | € 55 000 | | Ulissi | Diego | 27 | € 380 000 | | Yatsevich | Kiril | 24 | € 80 000 |
The chance of any of our core riders leaving the team is almost nil.
Open to offers
| Grabovski | Dmitri | 30 | € 70 000 | | Hirschlein | Ole | 27 | € 50 000 | | Ibarguren | Antton | 26 | € 50 000 | | Navarro | Daniel | 32 | € 70 000 | | Offredo | Yoann | 29 | € 50 000 | | Pardilla | Sergio | 31 | € 60 000 | | Samokhvalov | Anton | 29 | € 50 000 |
None of these riders have to leave, but we are open to offers for these riders from interested teams. They are most likely to go in a rider swap, although every offer will be looked at.
??
| Intxausti | Beñat | 29 | € 600 000 | | Úran | Rigoberto | 28 | € 630 000 |
Not yet decided on what will happen with our aces. They're both open to offers but everything will depend on transfers.

It is now officially confirmed, former Vuelta a Espana winner Justo Tenorio will be joining Bacardi Limited! We've had our eyes on him ever since we first came to the Pro Tour back in 2012. Unfortunately, his manager wasn't interested in selling him, although Tenorio himself wasn't to pleased with being Madrazo's lieutenant.
After the influx of several high profile stage racers in the free agency we knew what we wanted. We didn't want Madrazo, Phinney or Pluchkin. We went all out for Tenorio! In the end, we had to offer a stunning €1.400.000 to outbid Movistar - US Postal, our fellow promoting team.
It's an enormous amount of money, the highest wage any of our riders have had in our 4 seasons of existence, but it's a price we were willing to pay. Our main goal this season is to win the Vuelta a Espana and who would be better suited than a former winner.
Justo Tenorio | Age: 26 | Wage: €1.400.000 |
FL | MO | HI | TT | STA | RES | REC | COB | SP | ACC | FI | DH | PRL | 68 | 83 | 76 | 80 | 78 | 76 | 79 | 59 | 58 | 64 | 84 | 68 | 79 |

Looking forward to Tenorio and Madrazo finally coming head to head at some point this season - it's surely bound to happen somewhere. I can't really call you Vesuvio B anymore if you're no longer relying on Uran and Intxausti

@Ian: I certainly hope so, i hope his TT stat can give him some advantage over most other GC riders.
@SN: It took me a lot of money to get them both at Bacardi. I've had my eyes on Tenorio for a few years as well though, so i had some tough choices to make! Intxausti served us very well though. And i hope he can contest Madrazo now that he can ride for his own account!

Bringing in the reinforcements
[img-l]https://www.cqranking.com/men/images/Riders/2015/CQM2015004189.jpg[/img-l] Javier Moreno | Age: 31 | Wage: €50.000 |
FL | MO | HI | TT | STA | RES | REC | COB | SP | ACC | FI | DH | PRL | 67 | 75 | 70 | 69 | 72 | 73 | 68 | 53 | 61 | 72 | 71 | 65 | 67 |
Coming from the now defunct Santander, he will once again be reunited with former teamleader Tenorio. He will look to help the team out in the mountains. |
[img-l]https://www.cqranking.com/men/images/Riders/2015/CQM2015013240.jpg[/img-l] Elia Viviani | Age: 26 | Wage: €75.000 |
FL | MO | HI | TT | STA | RES | REC | COB | SP | ACC | FI | DH | PRL | 78 | 60 | 66 | 79 | 71 | 77 | 74 | 60 | 71 | 70 | 73 | 64 | 79 |
Coming over from Red Bull for a fee of €800.000. He will be a key rider in our TTT squad but also a crucial part of our flat classics line-up. |
[img-l]https://www.cqranking.com/men/images/Riders/2013/CQM2013012115.jpg[/img-l] Enrico Battaglin | Age: 26 | Wage: €50.000 | XP: 4.05 |
FL | MO | HI | TT | STA | RES | REC | COB | SP | ACC | FI | DH | PRL | 67 | 75 | 70 | 58 | 68 | 71 | 65 | 50 | 62 | 68 | 64 | 71 | 58 |
Battaglin briefly rode for Bacardi back in 2011 in the U23 Division. Now he's back and while he is still developing, he should already be a very good helper in the mountains. |
[img-l]https://www.cqranking.com/men/images/Riders/2014/CQM2014013267.jpg[/img-l] Francisco Lasca | Age: 27 | Wage: €50.000 |
FL | MO | HI | TT | STA | RES | REC | COB | SP | ACC | FI | DH | PRL | 72 | 58 | 68 | 65 | 70 | 69 | 75 | 66 | 76 | 74 | 65 | 68 | 65 |
Our second and last rider we have signed from the free agency this year. Lasca will try to help Aberasturi whenever he can in the flat races. |

Congrats on Tenorio. I could have went higher but in the end I had to make what I thought was the best decision to back off. He will look good in Bacardi colors.
