Hello Robert,
official invitation and registration process will be launched on 1 January, but most probably registration will look like this:

Number of competitors admitted:
For European countries:
- Official registration: in each class maximum 5 racers/nation + reigning European Champions
- Optional registration: the organizing committee opens up registration from 1 May till 20 May in classes where minimum nr. of participants is not achieved.
During this period the organizing committee holds the right to accept registrations from each country.
National federations and participants will be notified in case their registration is approved.
The list of minimum nr. of participants can be found as an attachement to the official invitation.

For non-European countries:
- Official registration: in each class maximum 3 racers/nation

Planned deadlines:
Official registration: 20 April 2009 (postal date)
