Improving upon 14 victories in the 2010 season, Vacansoleil-DCM managed 22 victories during the season. Having previously been invited to the 2009 Vuelta a España, Vacansoleil-DCM contested the other Grand Tour events – the Giro d'Italia and the Tour de France – for the first time.

The team were also successful in single-day races, with six different riders all achieving a victory. Despite all the victories, the team finished last in the UCI World Tour rankings, since the majority of their victories came during UCI Europe Tour races. ProTeams, though eligible to participate in the races, were not eligible to earn points toward the Europe Tour ranking (just as Professional Continental teams could not earn points toward the World Tour ranking).

Stage races

The team was very successful at the Tour Méditerranéen in February, as Feillu won three consecutive stages, along with the points classification, and Poels finished as the best young rider in third place overall, having finished in the same position on the final and most difficult stage.[83] Westra finished third in the Volta ao Algarve,[84] before De Gendt took the team's first World Tour stage win of the season, managing to just outlast the advancing field in a sprint finish to the opening stage of Paris–Nice.[85] Feillu took another stage victory at May's Tour de Picardie,[86] en route to an eventual overall victory in the race.[87] The following week at the Circuit de Lorraine, De Gendt won the third stage – giving him the race lead for a time[88] – and Feillu won the fifth and final stage,[89] with De Gendt finishing at the top of the mountains classification, and the team won their respective classification.[89] Westra won the opening prologue of the Tour of Belgium,[90] with the squad eventually winning the teams classification.[91] Feillu took his eighth victory of the season at June's Tour de Luxembourg, taking the final stage win.[92]

Later in June, the team took two stage victories in the Tour de Suisse; in the fifth stage into Tägerschen, following an attack by Marcato, Božič took out the uphill sprint to the line,[93] and on the seventh stage that finished in Austrian town Serfaus, De Gendt triumphed after breaking clear of a 17-man group with 25 km (15.5 mi) remaining on the stage, eventually winning the stage by over half a minute.[94] Held concurrently with the Tour de France, van Leijen won the second stage of the Tour de Wallonie,[95] with Selvaggi later finishing on top of the mountains classification, and the squad took another teams classification win.[96] Poels claimed a stage win during the Tour de l'Ain in August,[97] eventually finishing the race second overall after cracking from the race lead on the final stage, but did win the race's sprints classification.[98] Hoogerland also took the team's sixth mountains classification win of the year.[98] Leukemans completed the team's stage race successes with a stage and overall win at the Tour du Limousin.[99]

The team also won lesser classifications at the Étoile de Bessèges,[100] the Critérium International,[101] the Three Days of De Panne,[102] and the Tour de Pologne.[103] The team also sent squads to the Tour Down Under,[104] the Vuelta an Andalucía,[105] Driedaagse van West-Vlaanderen,[106] Vuelta a Murcia,[107] Tirreno–Adriatico,[108] the Volta a Catalunya,[109] the Tour of the Basque Country,[110] Ronde van Drenthe,[111] the Tour de Romandie,[112] the Four Days of Dunkirk,[113] the Critérium du Dauphiné,[114] the Delta Tour Zeeland,[115] the Ster ZLM Toer,[116] the Danmark Rundt,[117] the Eneco Tour,[118] the Tour of Britain,[119] the Tour de Wallonie-Picarde,[120] and the Tour of Beijing,[121] but did not achieve a stage win, classification win, or podium finish in any of them.

Grand Tours

Giro d'Italia

The UCI considered a potential revoking of Vacansoleil-DCM's ProTeam licence in mid-February,[122] which would stop the team from automatically being invited to any World Tour race and be demoted to a Professional Continental team, as they were in 2010. This licence issue came to light due to continued investigations into doping regarding two of the team's riders; Mosquera and Riccò. Mosquera had tested positive for hydroxyethyl starch at the 2010 Vuelta a España, while Riccò had been admitted to hospital earlier in February, amid allegations that he had carried out a self-administered autologous blood transfusion at his home. (For more information on the Riccò allegations, see the Dismissal of Riccardo Riccò section)

Despite talk of a potential exclusion from the race due to these scandals, the team were included in the list of 23 teams admitted, on March 7, per UCI rules.[1] Carrara was the team's leader for the race, while Božič and Hoogerland were named to the squad to aim for stage wins and breakaway representation.[123] The team's showing in the stage 1 team time trial was average, as they came home 10th of the 23 teams, 37 seconds off the winning pace set by You have called {{Contentious topics}}.

Dismissal of Riccardo Riccò

Riccardo Riccò, pictured at the team's presentation for the 2011 season, was sacked in February after reportedly confessing to blood doping.

Having made his season début with a seventh place in the Grand Prix d'Ouverture La Marseillaise in France on January 30,[18] and prior to travelling to the Tour Méditerranéen, Riccò was admitted to hospital in Pavullo nel Frignano on February 6, with his father Rubinho stating that his son had apparent "kidney failure" and a body temperature of 104 °F (40 °C); he was later transferred to a hospital in Modena.[156] Two days later, the Italian State Police confirmed that they were investigating Riccò for blood doping, after an apparent self-administered autologous blood transfusion at his home, and obtained his medical records while Riccò was in hospital recovering.[157] His team also released a statement that day, calling the reports "a rumour", but started their own investigation into the matter, and if found to have doped, Riccò would be sacked as a violation of UCI anti-doping rules.[158]

Personalities within the cycling world condemned Riccò for returning to doping,[159][160][161] having already served a 20-month ban for the banned blood booster CERA in 2008. After conducting their investigation, the team announced that they had suspended Riccò on February 11, also indicating that they had sent a letter of their decision to Riccò.[162] Following this scandal, as well as the continued allegations over team-mate Mosquera in 2010, the UCI had planned to look at the credibility of having the team at the highest echelon of the sport – as a ProTeam – with Riccò's points making up a proportion of the team's allocation in regards to a ProTeam licence.[122] Riccò was sacked by the team on February 19,[6] on the basis of their "zero-tolerance policy" on doping.[163] The team later announced a more stringent policy on how they deal with doping. Having previously given Leukemans a second chance after a positive test for artificial testosterone, team manager Daan Luijkx stated that the team would not give riders a second chance to prove their capabilities after Riccò's situation.[164]

Riccò announced his intention to never race again in March,[165] but signed with Continental team Meridiana-Kamen in June in the hope of competing in the Tour de Serbie.[166] This did not transpire, as he was suspended by the Italian National Olympic Committee prior to the race, in relation to the February blood transfusion.[167] He eventually received a twelve-year ban from the Italian National Anti-Doping Tribunal in April 2012.[168]

It may only be used if the user has previously received any contentious topic alert, and it can be replaced by a custom message that conveys the contentious topic designation. * {{alert/DS}} ({{Contentious topics/alert/DS}}) is used to inform editors that the old "discretionary sanctions" system has been replaced by the contentious topics system, and that a specific topic is a contentious topic. * {{Contentious topics/aware}} is used to register oneself as already aware that a specific topic is a contentious topic. Editnotices * {{Contentious topics/editnotice}} is used to inform editors that a page is covered by the contentious topics system using an editnotice.
