I would also like to recommend Volta a Portugal... It doesn't really suit my riders well, but it got a 2km PRL, cobbled stage, hilly stages, mountain stage, flat stages and a long TT. 
Please no, Volta a Portugal is 11 stages, which means you have to get rid of too many other races to make it fit in the calendar
That's true... So is Langkawi btw(Well, ok, it's 10 )
But Langwaki is .HC race |

Okay, true... But it's not like it's the home race of someone or something like that...
Holland still needs a home race

Do we really need to have Qatar? I know it's an .HC race but it's soooo boring and if we took it away we could have Mallorca instead - far more interesting race

DFVC is just dull. Its a boring ass sprint, which there are already plenty of. World Ports came close but i went with some other slightly more interesting (in my opinion) races. Also only you have NED as a main sponsor. Dominos are NED as secondary as are TCS. So there "home" races are any of the US ones and Danmark Rundt. Yours is Amstel and/or Eneco.
Volta a Portugal is too long when there is also Langkwai. Also it would mean the loss of a one day .1 race, which was really useful when making an interesting variety.
There could have been more cobbles yes, but there are still a fair few races where cobbles are key.
No Scandinavian Race because its not a .1 race. Instead you've got Glava Tour of Norway.
No rush on Wild Card applications. Or on CT race swaps.

As a matter of fact, Tour of Qatar is a 2.1 race |

Tour of Qatar is a .HC race in PCM so it will most likely stay in |

Well, yeah Qatar is 2.HC, at least it is in Daily Expansion..
Although I agree, it's boring... World ports Classic would be way more fun
@TMM Yeah, you've got a point. Forgot about Eneco & Amstel as home race, although I won't dominate them I guess...
Still would be great if you change your mind though

Right, I was wrong, it is 2.HC since 2012
On the other hand, it's still boring as hell  |
