2012 Euskaltel–Euskadi season

The 2012 season for Euskaltel–Euskadi 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.

The team experiences a managerial change, as Igor González de Galdeano left the post at the end of 2011 season,[1] and was replaced by the man named, Miguel Madariaga.

[2] Madariaga has stated that he was taking the position only for 2012 and will leave before 2013, perhaps not coincidentally when the Basque government will remove or at least greatly reduce their financial commitment to the team.

On September 19, 2012, squad member Victor Cabedo died in a training accident near his home of Onda, following a collision with a vehicle, subsequently falling into a ravine.
