PARIS-ROUBAIX on UCI calendar ...if...
if UCI accept it.
As a sight of good willing, ASO has accepted to put P-R on UCI calendar. What will McQuaid do? Quote:

When I saw your title, I thought McQuaid was gonna quit or something. Oh well - looks like that will have to wait...

Re: PARIS-ROUBAIX on UCI calendar ...if...
So what does this basically mean? Would the UCI be able to say which teams will be allowed to race and which won't?

No. It just means that instead of maintaining the race outside of the UCI calendar (i.e., no "1.HC" class, etc.), they will put it on the calendar. RCS has registered its races with the UCI (e.g., T-A, M-R, Giro) but invites who it wants. The ASO had indicated that they did not want to "downgrade" their races from formerly Pro Tour status to the general UCI categories.

Ok, thanks. But what is the catch for UCI here?

How strongly has UCI come out against RCS for their approach to invitations for the Giro?

But the Giro is not The Tour. I think that is a lot of it. RCS has nice races but ASO really has some of the best.
