Overview
- Marco Bezzecchi won the Indonesian Grand Prix on Sunday with Aprilia placing its four factory bikes first through fourth, a result that vaulted Aprilia ahead of Ducati in the constructors standings by 12 points.
- Jorge Martín finished third at Mandalika and left Indonesia with the same two‑point advantage over Marc Márquez in the riders’ championship, so the title fight remains a two‑point duel.
- Raúl Fernández rode most of the race despite reporting two fractured fingers on his right hand and was second before Bezzecchi pulled ahead late in the race.
- Marc Márquez has voiced safety concerns about racing in Doha because of the Iran war and said life matters more than races, a stance that could affect whether the Qatar round goes ahead and therefore change the pool of remaining points.
- Five rounds are listed as left in the season — Australia, Malaysia, Qatar, Portugal and Valencia — which currently offer up to 185 points to decide the title and would fall to 148 points if the Qatar weekend is cancelled, a scenario that would alter championship permutations.
