The 2015 season for Tinkoff–Saxo is scheduled to begin in January with the Tour Down Under. As a UCI WorldTeam, they are automatically invited and obligated to send a squad to every event in the UCI World Tour.
In March 2015 the team confirmed that Riis had been removed from active duty due to differences between Riis and Tinkov. Media reports had initially indicated that Riis had been suspended when he did not appear at Milan–San Remo as planned, and that this was due to a disappointing start to the season for the team.[1] On 29 March, it was announced that Riis had been released by the team. News reports cited the "tumultuous relationship" and "difference in character" between Riis and Tinkov as the reason for Riis's departure.[2][3]
