U/23 WC Selection Restrictions?

[PCutter]

Are there restrictions on selecting riders for the U/23 World Road Championships beyond the obvious of being under the age of 23? I ask this having read the CN story on the Australian team and noting that Jack Bobridge isn't listed, despite being under 23 and the reigning U/23 TT champ (and one of Australia's best road riders). Is there a restriction if you are riding with a ProTour team and not as a stagaire or something?

No ProTour riders.

No ProTour riders.

How sure are you of that? There's nothing (as far as I can see) in the UCI pdf rulebook, and last year FDJ's Arnaud Courteille participated, as did Fuji's Pedro Merino Criado and Garmin's Alex Howes (says CQ).
(they could've changed the rules, of course)

... though the U23 rankings only have non PT guys on them, of course.
Sigh. Can the UCI do anything without being confusing?

no pt contracted riders and I think countrys in the top 10 of the ncup get to start with 6 riders. others with 5,3,2 or 1 don't know how this is decided though

They has. in this one:World Championships

Thanks much! Would it kill them to put that in the qualification one too?
