Rohan Dennis has received a two-year suspended sentence for his role in a car incident that resulted in the death of his wife, former Olympian and track world champion Melissa Hoskins.

The 34-year-old Australian, who retired from pro cycling at the end of 2023, pleaded guilty during the court case to an aggravated charge of causing likelihood of harm.
