Valtteri Bottas is known to break the internet by uploading pictures of his butt. Recently, Valtteri Bottas's TikTok account got suspended and it got fans thinking.

Bottas did not address his account being suspended but fans have their own theories.

After the 2022 Miami Grand Prix, Bottas uploaded a photo of himself swimming in a stream somewhere in Colorado with his butt clearly visible. That picture was sold off as a limited edition and it earned a whopping €50,000 which was later donated to a charity. He also exposed his bum in Netflix's F1 docudrama Drive to Survive.

F1 fans took over social media and shared the possible reason for his account being suspended.

One possible reason for his account suspension might be that TikTok has been deleting and suspending accounts that have been inactive for a long period of time. This might be what caused the banning of the account.
