CQ has him with Veranclassic - Ago, but he was not registered there on the UCI site.

Dare Bikes - Partizan
Kobanya
Team Budget Forklifts
and of course, as in previous years, BMC Development Team

Handzame Classic results on UCI website shows ;

So...Can we trust UCI ?

Team Ecuador
Albert TORRES has terminated his contract with the team on 18 March. (bici)
This is just a few weeks after Domenec Corbonell, their team director during races in Spain, asked the UCI to suspend Team Ecuador for non-payment. (bici)
Unlikely that Daniel DOMINGUEZ, who confirmed in December (bici) that he continues with Team Ecuador in 2016, but who is not yet registered with the team by the UCI, will effectively join.

Why Jakub KLEVETA? He is in the UCI roster of Whirlpool.

I'm totally sure a few hours ago there were only 10 riders in the roster, and no Kleveta...

Finally Richard CARAPAZ will not race for STRONGMAN CAMPAGNOLO as he's signed for Spanish Elite team Lizarte a few days ago...

The UCI still has him in the rosters of Dare - Gobik as well as Rietumu - Delfin
In Dare with the wrong spelling GALARETTA instead of GALARRETA
In Rietumu with the wrong code: ESP19930127 instead of ESP19930702
In the results of the Vuelta a la Rioja he is with Rietumu, with the right code but the wrong spelling…
