Fermin Aldeguer is a first-time MotoGP winner in a dramatic Indonesian Grand Prix
Gresini MotoGP rookie Fermin Aldeguer emerged as the dominant force in the 2025 Indonesian Grand Prix, showcasing his talent as he clinched victory while Marc Marquez suffered an injury in a crash on the first lap.
Despite a challenging weekend for Ducati, 20-year-old Aldeguer shone brightly at Mandalika, securing a second-place qualifying spot and narrowly missing out on a sprint win.
Seizing the lead on lap eight of the race, Aldeguer continued to extend his advantage, ultimately crossing the finish line almost seven seconds ahead to claim his first MotoGP race win in his debut season.
He joins Jorge Martin as the only debutants to win a grand prix since 2021, providing some relief for Ducati following a disappointing outing for their factory team.
Marquez’s early exit due to a collision with Marco Bezzecchi and Bagnaia’s crash further compounded the struggles faced by Ducati at Mandalika.
The race saw Aldeguer skillfully maneuvering to the front, fending off challenges from Acosta, Marini, and the chasing pack to secure a commanding victory.
