46 has been suspended and will…
Valentino Rossi, the renowned Italian motorcycle racer, has faced several suspensions throughout his illustrious career. One notable instance occurred in 2015 during the Malaysian Grand Prix at Sepang. After a controversial incident involving Marc Márquez, Rossi was penalized with three penalty points, accumulating enough to start the subsequent race in Valencia from the back of the grid. Rossi appealed this decision to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), seeking to have the penalty suspended or annulled. However, the CAS upheld the original penalty, requiring Rossi to start from the back of the grid in Valencia.
Another suspension occurred in 2020 when Rossi tested positive for COVID-19, leading to his withdrawal from the Aragon and Teruel rounds of the MotoGP season. This absence marked a significant moment in his career, as he was forced to miss races due to health concerns.
These instances highlight the challenges Rossi has faced, even in the latter stages of his career, underscoring the unpredictable nature of professional sports.
