Furthermore, and by virtue of article 2.1.007bis of the UCI Regulations, the following UCI ProTeams have qualified for UCI WorldTour events for the 2020 season (subject to confirmation of the number of teams being granted UCI WorldTour licences):

• TOTAL DIRECT ENERGIE (invited to all UCI WorldTour events, including the UCI Classics Series)
• WANTY GOBERT - TORMANS (invited to all UCI Classics Series events)

As Wanty seems to be more of a classics team, the invites to all classics is likely the big thing they need.
It'll be interesting to see how many races Direct Energie ends up going to as I can see them turning down some invites for races they aren't as well suited to.

GT Wildcards will be interesting as well, my guess as of now would be. Giro: Androni, Bardiani Tour: Arkea, B&B Vuelta: Caja, Fundacion, Burgos

I'm not sure Total - Direct Energie will do the Vuelta, their roster seem too light to afford 3 GTs.
