Here are the race lists for the C1 and C2 calendars, with the usual mixtures of new races, races changing categories, and continuing races from before. Routes will be revealed when the Race Profiles forum is released, as there is still work to do on some races - as you can see, a couple are still missing a confirmed location.
 | Tour Down Under | C1 | 6 |  | Vuelta al Tachira | C1 | 10 |  | Barcelona Classic | C1 | 2 |  | GP Kigali | C1 | 2 | | Volta a Catalunya | C1 | 6 |  | Gisborne GP | C1 | 2 |  | Sprinters Stage Race | C1 | 6 |  | Dwars Door Vlaanderen | C1 | 2 |  | Tour of Ukraine | C1 | 5 |  | Duo Differdange | C1 | 2 | | Gent - Wevelgem | C1 | 2 |  | Seskin Classic | C1 | 2 | | KBC De Panne Tour | C1 | 4 |  | Tour of South Africa | C1 | 6 |  | Philadelphia International Championship | C1 | 2 |  | Tour of Japan | C1 | 6 |  | Scandinavia Open Road Race | C1 | 2 |  | Viana do Castelo | C1 | 2 |  | Olympia's Tour | C1 | 7 |  | Grozny Classic | C1 | 2 |  | Tour of Norway | C1 | 4 |  | Monterrey TTT | C1 | 2 |  | Isle of Man ITT | C1 | 2 |  | Tour of Bulgaria | C1 | 4 |  | Melaka's Governor Cup | C1 | 2 | | Tour of America | C1 | 21 |  | Grands Prix Cyclistes | C1 | 2 |  | GP Plouay | C1 | 2 |  | Milano - Torino | C1 | 2 |  | Colombian Venteaux | C1 | 2 | | | | |  | Clasico San Cristobal | C2 | 2 |  | Tour of the Middle East | C2 | 12 |  | Tour de San Luis | C2 | 7 | | GP Tokyo | C2 | 2 | | Cauberg Classic | C2 | 2 | | European Stage Race | C2 | 4 |  | Windhoek ITT | C2 | 2 |  | Tour de Taiwan | C2 | 4 | | Circulo de Juarez | C2 | 5 | | Lincoln GP | C2 | 2 | | Giro del Capo | C2 | 6 |  | Hanko Classic | C2 | 2 |  | Tour of East Java | C2 | 2 |  | Tour de Slovenie | C2 | 5 | | Cigar City Brewing Twilight Classic | C2 | 2 | | Herald Sun Tour | C2 | 5 |  | Tour du Faso | C2 | 3 |
While Tour of America does have 21 race days, that may not end up being the cost to participate in that race at the C1/C2 calendar selection stage.
Thanks to ggDonovan for creating this list from the month by month calendar version which I created. (That file too, will be available when the race profiles are)

It would've been great if Szalakiem was in this, but other than that good diversity

Sad to see Himmerland Rundt go, but I suppose there is a price to pay for getting GP Herning in C2HC.
Enough cobbles to go around still. Maybe I'll even tag along on the C1 races again this year.

Bulgaria loses a race day bit i don't mind as long its kept the same rider focus. Looks good for C1, don't care for C2 from a team perspective but again it looks good.

What even is the Colombian Venteaux/Ventoux anyway? Can't think of a climb that immediately springs to mind
Sad to see Clásico RCN disappear, but we get San Luis as a replacement in C2 which is good from a South American point of view (although likely TT... eugh). Overall an interesting calendar, will require some great thought at the race selection stage.

Sad to see Algarve go, it turned into a pilgrimage for Mininons since Haga's victory 
But surely not disappointed in the number of American races on the calendar

Faso... 
Was always great to rely on a decent late-season surge thanks to it.
The way it looks, only 3 additional cobbled races on C1 level, that may change my transfer targets a slight bit and will definitely require a strong focus on the HC bands containing cobbles for anyone who looks to get some good points from that terrain.
Also, it seems like the only race we can hope for a nationality bonus for a leader would be Plouay for Demare, but there are a couple more on HC level.

I like the amount of cobbled races in HC and C1. Should give Vanmarcke a very good chance of scoring nicely.
Is Algarve completely out of the MG for 2015? Was one of my favourite races back in 12/13.
The look on the total calendar looks brilliant. Lots of different races to pick from. |

Looks like a great calendar overall. On a personal note, its good to see the Tour of South Africa return after our win last year along with a new African race in GP Kigali. Also its good to see most if not all teams will get a home race. |

Just to be sure, these are races CT can apply for, too, right?
Is there a list somewhere how many race days each division can race and from what category of races?
