FIM Anti-Doping
FIM Grand Prix World Championship
Driver Andrea Iannone provisionally suspended

The Fédération Internationale de Motorcyclisme (FIM) has informed Italian Grand Prix rider Andrea Iannone that he is provisionally suspended in accordance with Article 7.9.1 of the 2019 FIM Anti-Doping Code (CAD) Regulations.

The decision to provisionally suspend Mr. Andrea Iannone was mandatory following receipt of a report from the WADA accredited laboratory in Kreischa, district of Dresden (Germany) indicating an adverse analytical result of an unspecified substance under section 1.1.a), exogenous anabolic androgenic steroids (AAS) from the 2019 Prohibited List, in a urine sample collected from him during an in-competition test carried out by the FIM during the Grand Prix round of the FIM World Championship which took place in Sepang, Malaysia, on November 3, 2019.

Mr. Andrea Iannone has the right to request to be present at the analysis of his B sample.
Mr. Andrea Iannone is provisionally suspended with effect from December 17, 2019. He is therefore prohibited from participating in any motorcycling competition or activity until further notice. Under Article 7.9.3.2 DAO, Mr. Iannone may request the lifting of his provisional suspension.

Under the World Anti-Doping Code and the FIM Anti-Doping Code, the FIM is unable to provide further information at this time.
