The team's first win of the season came in the Ronde van Drenthe where Marianne Vos claimed victory. The team's first overall General classification win came at the Festival Luxembourgeois du cyclisme féminin Elsy Jacobs, again being won by Vos, along with a stage; Annemiek van Vleuten also won the prologue and a stage. Vos went on to win 5 stages of the 2012 Giro d'Italia Femminile, as well as the General classification. Vos followed this by winning the General classification of the Tour Féminin en Limousin. Vos continued her strong run of wins claiming the 2012 Olympic Games road race in London. The final wins for the team came at the Holland Ladies Tour where Vos won the General classification and took two stage wins. Vos later won the 2012 UCI World Championship road race.
2013
Marianne Vos opened the team's account securing victory in the 2013 UCI Cyclo-cross World Championship. The team's first road win of the season came at the Drentse 8 van Dwingeloo, with Vos claiming victory. Vos went on to win the Ronde van Drenthe and Tour of Flanders. Like the previous season the first overall General classification win came at the Festival Luxembourgeois du cyclisme féminin Elsy Jacobs, with Vos winning the General classification, Points classification and taking a stage win. Like the previous year, Annemiek van Vleuten won the opening prologue. Vos continued her winning streak in one day races taking out wins in the Rabobank 7-Dorpenomloop Aalburg and Durango-Durango Emakumeen Saria. Vos failed to retain her 2013 Giro title, losing to Mara Abbott, but did claim the Points classification and three stages. Vos also claimed overall victory in Trophée d'Or Féminin
In January the team scored first and third in the UCI World Cyclo-cross championships, with Pauline Ferrand-Prévot and Marianne Vos respectively. This was the year that saw Vos in recovery mode taking most of the year off due to injury.[2][3] In the first European road race of the season, the Omloop het Nieuwsblad, the team rode very strongly. With 30 kilometres (19 miles) to go, Anna van der Breggen escaped together with Ellen van Dijk (Boels–Dolmans) from a front group of 15 riders on the Molenberg. The duo extended their advantage over the cobbled sections that followed, holding off the chase group to the line, where van der Breggen won the two-up sprint.[4]
In December 2015 Rabobank announced that it would end its sponsorship of professional sport at the end of 2016, forcing the team to find a new sponsor.[5]
2016
In November 2016 the team announced that it would be known as WM3 Pro Cycling in 2017, signing a five-year sponsorship deal with WM3 Energie, a company based in the Netherlands. The team replaced Rabo–Liv, whose sponsorship ceased at the end of 2016.[6]
In October, the team announced that WaowDeals would join the team as naming-sponsor, with WM3 remaining with the team as a secondary sponsor after agreeing a five-year deal with the team in the winter of 2016.[10]
