The 2012 season for Lotto–Belisol began in January at the Tour Down Under. As a UCI ProTeam, they were automatically invited and obligated to send a squad to every event in the UCI World Tour.

At the end of the 2011 season, Lotto parted company with co-sponsors Omega Pharma after seven seasons together, before window manufacturer Belisol joined the team as co-sponsor for three seasons.[1]
