Race numbers withdrawn: from Tony Cairoli to Marco Simoncelli, the legendary cases

Every champion, in order to succeed in the eyes of the fans, needs companies and symbols. The first takes place on the tracks of the respective championships; for the latter, however, there are nicknames, symbols and above all numbers. The race tables are immediately recognizable, becoming true icons. As a tribute to the glorious career or as an honor to the memory of a missing champion, the gesture of withdrawing the number from the list of those available has entered the ceremonials that make motorsport history.
