The 2015 Sibiu Cycling Tour took place between 1 July and 5 July 2015. For the first time it was raced over 5 days, and moved forward in the calendar by nearly three weeks. The race was won by Mauro Finetto (Southeast Pro Cycling) who won the mountain stage to Păltiniș and was able to retain his jersey through to the end of the race.
Teams
[edit]It was expected that the teams of all the jersey winners and stage winners from 2014, Adria Mobil, CCC–Sprandi–Polkowice, Verandas Willems and Parkhotel Valkenburg Continental Team, would compete again in 2015. Adria Mobil later withdrew to be replaced by Southeast Pro Cycling taking the number of pro-continental teams in the race to four.[1][2]
