Jorge Martin wins Indonesian MotoGP; Marc Marquez and Enea Bastianini DNF

Championship leader scores vital first Sunday win since May

MotoGP championship leader Jorge Martin led from start to finish in a chaotic Indonesian Grand Prix as Pedro Acosta’s second-place is under threat from a possible tyre pressure penalty.

However, Acosta has been flagged for a possible tyre pressure infringement, which could net him a 16s time penalty if he is found to have breached the rules. Off the line, Martin eased into the lead ahead of Bastianini and Acosta, while Bagnaia recovered from a poor launch to hold fourth ahead of Marquez.

The latter overtake gave Martin a 1.3s lead, while the two factory Ducati riders struggled for pace in the early laps. Once Bastianini got clear of Bezzecchi on lap 13 and Morbidelli on lap 17, he streaked away from that group and ate into the gap to Acosta in second.This boosted Bagnaia’s hopes of getting onto the podium, with the world champion getting into third on lap 23.
