MotoGP Indonesian GP: Bagnaia takes vital win from 13th as Martin crashes

In the MotoGP race, Pramac’s Martin was leading and looked set to extend his lead over world champion Bagnaia, but he crashed on lap 13. Aprilia’s Vinales briefly took the lead, but Bagnaia ultimately overtook him to secure the victory. Vinales finished second, with Quartararo taking third. Bagnaia now has an 18-point lead in the championship and is the first rider in 17 years to win a dry GP from outside the first four rows. Martin had a strong start using Ducati’s new start device, while Bagnaia made aggressive moves to climb up the field. Bagnaia overtook Quartararo to take third place and began closing in on the leaders. Martin’s crash in Turn 11 allowed Vinales to take the lead temporarily, but Bagnaia ultimately emerged as the winner. The podium finishers were separated by only 0.433 seconds, and it was Bagnaia’s sixth victory of the season. Di Giannantonio and Bezzecchi rounded out the top five.
