In 2012 Lotto Belisol welcomed Lars Bak, a man with experience. The Danish rider was a regular member of the successful train of Mark Cavendish and he also achieved some nice results in big stage races and in Paris-Roubaix. The Dane has become essential to Lotto Belisol, during the spring classics and to support the leaders. The master helper can look back with satisfaction on his first season at Lotto Belisol with a brilliant stage win in the Giro and the victory of the GP Fourmies.
