The mother-of-two died after she was rushed to hospital.
Former champion cyclist Rohan Dennis has delayed pleading to charges over the death of his wife, fellow Olympian Melissa Hoskins, so negotiations with prosecutors can continue.
The mother-of-two was rushed to the Royal Adelaide Hospital but died that night. At a charge determination hearing in August, prosecutors confirmed they would proceed with charges of causing death by dangerous driving and driving without due care. During his competitive career, Dennis won two world titles in the road time trial, as well as silver in the team pursuit at the 2012 Olympics and bronze in the road time trial at the Tokyo Olympics.Hoskins was laid to rest in her home city of Perth and a public memorial service was held in Adelaide in February.
