Continental teams interested in gaining a wildcard for ProTour races need to download this file, fill it in, and PM it to me: https://www.mediafire.com/?3djgndibolz
There are a number of different categories and prices, depending on the type of races you wish to apply for:
Type | Price | Classics Wildcards | 50,000 | Monuments Wildcards | 75,000 | Classics and Monuments Wildcards | 100,000 | Stage Races Wildcards | 100,000 | Grand Tour Wildcards | 150,000 | Grand Tours and Stage Races Wildcards | 200,000 | All PT Races Wildcards | 300,000 |
Grand Tours and Monuments will have 2 continental teams in, the rest will only have 1. New or Relegated teams are not eligible for Grand Tours or Monument.
You can apply for a place in up to 15 races, and the file includes a space for you to propose a lineup for the race. These may help you receive a wildcard, and while you can make changes during the season planning stage, you will expected to still field a strong team. It is therefore a good idea to check the Calendar and make sure you do not apply to PT races that clash with any CT races that are important to you, and will require your team leaders.
ProTour races will not earn you ranking points, but can give your riders experience points.

Just to make absolutely sure, PT races do not take racedys from CT riders, wright?
And, is it possible to get our definitive HC races before choosing PT races?

They dont take race days.
About 75% of teams have got all of their HC races decided now, so PM me if you want to know befored deciding on PT races, and Ill tell you which ones you will definately be in

You should get into at least one, yes (But if not, you can get your money back)

Every ProTour classic. So pay 50,000 and you can apply to all of them, if you like. (Does not include the 5 monuments though)

Or do a Wiggle, and pay 300,000 and try and enter every race that suits your team (only for existing teams really...)

same here, except I am only going for stage races.
I suspect that applying for all three GT's is slightly optimistic though.

Is there a deadline for this? If so, will we know what HC-races we can participate in before the deadline for wildcards?

Interesting idea to submit the same lineup to Tour de Suisse and Dauphine

If you give me both then I will struggle to make that work, but I'll take either one.
I considered submitting the same line up to Catalunya, P-N and T-A. but figured that would be excessive.

Oddball. I rock, and so have only applied to the Giro & the Vuelta, plus a shit load of other random races, like LBL, AG & FW.

So you don't need to apply for the races if you don't wanna race them ? |

Um, isnt that obvious?
You apply for the races that you would like to get a wildcard for, and those races only
