Welcome to our MotoGP 2026 Indonesian GP Race Live Blog!
There’s been thrills, spills and plenty of action so far in Mandalika, with the promise of plenty more still to come in today’s Grand Prix.
Friday was all about Aprilia, with Marco Bezzecchi leading the way in FP1, whilst Raúl Fernández was back on form and topping the timing sheets in Practice.
Fernández continued his dominant form in Saturday’s qualifying, setting a new all-time lap record and starting on pole for the first time in MotoGP. He was joined on the front row by Marco Bezzecchi and Fabio Di Giannantonio.
The Sprint got off to a chaotic start, with a first corner crash that took out both Fernández and Bezzecchi. Jorge Martín led for most of the race, until tyre pressure issues caused him to ultimately finish fourth.
In the end, it was Marc Márquez who took the Sprint win, breaking his Mandalika curse and taking the top step of the podium for the first time in Indonesia. With it came the championship lead, where he is now ahead of Martín by four points going into today’s main event.
Marc is no doubt looking to clinch the double in order to get maximum points and extent his lead in the title fight. Can Martín swap the order back around again? Will Fernández and Bezzecchi avoid any opening-lap drama? Whatever happens, it’s bound to be an exciting final day at the 2026 Indonesian GP.

He may have finished second, but what an absolutely incredible ride from Raúl Fernández
He pushed through today’s race with not one, but two broken fingers after yesterday’s Sprint crash. That must have been absolute agony!

It marks the 300th MotoGP win for Italy and marks his first podium in four months – the last was in Mugello back in May. Don’t count him out of the title fight just yet!

The back-and-forth fight goes on
There’s a constant switching of positions between Acosta and Marc Márquez, but the KTM now seems to be comfortably ahead of the Ducati – but it’s not over yet as Ai Ogura has now also passed the reigning champ

The heat is on
Acosta is back past Marc, and up at the front Bezzecchi is all over the back of Fernández – is there a change in race leader on the horizon?
