The 2012 Volta a Catalunya was the 92nd running of the Volta a Catalunya cycling stage race. It started on 19 March in Calella and ended on 25 March in Barcelona, and consisted of seven stages. It was the fifth race of the 2012 UCI World Tour season.
The race was won by Switzerland's Michael Albasini of GreenEDGE,[2] after winning the first two stages of the race and maintained his advantage all the way to the end of the race. Albasini won the general classification by 90 seconds over runner-up Samuel Sánchez of the Euskaltel–Euskadi team. Third place was taken by Lotto–Belisol's Jurgen Van den Broeck, after thirteen riders finished the race with a deficit of 92 seconds to Albasini; Van Den Broeck recorded the lowest cumulative score for his stage positions, and as a result, was placed highest of the group of riders.[1] In the race's other classifications, Tomasz Marczyński of Vacansoleil–DCM won the white jersey for the most points gained in intermediate sprints,[1] while Team Saxo Bank rider Chris Anker Sørensen won the King of the Mountains classification,[1] and Garmin–Barracuda finished at the head of the teams classification.[1]
