The difficulties of organizing races are not only restricted to Europe. Tour of Oman is facing a difficult future and there is even a risk that 2016 will be the last edition. 

Times of Oman has raised the discussion as the contract with the various sponsors of the event had a duration of five years and will expire this year. The supervisor of the event Habib Al Zawawi has assured that he will do everything to continue the race and try to extend the contracts and find new bakers.
