The 2011 season for Team Katusha began in January at the Tour Down Under and ended in October at the Giro di Lombardia. As a UCI ProTeam, they were automatically invited and obligated to send a squad to every event in the UCI World Tour.

Just days before the competitive season began, the team signed former Giro d'Italia winner Danilo Di Luca, who had recently regained eligibility following a doping ban. He rode in 2011 for no salary.

The team made history by sending an all-Russian selection to the Tour de France, spearheaded by third-year pro and minor 2011 breakout star Denis Galimzyanov. While the squad did not achieve anything notable at the Tour, Galimzyanov won four races on the season and the points jersey at the year's final stage race, the Tour of Beijing.

Though the team was on the whole not as successful as it was in 2010, when leader Joaquim Rodríguez was the UCI world number one rider, they had several, and varied, victories in 2011. They won four single-day races, six jersey awards at five different stage races, the overall at the Vuelta a Burgos and three stages at the Vuelta a España. Rodríguez finished fourth in the UCI standings at the end of the season, winning seven races himself. Rodríguez also had a solid spring classics campaign, finishing on the podium at both the Amstel Gold Race and La Flèche Wallonne.
