Bezzecchi wins Indonesian MotoGP as Martin retakes the championship lead

The Indonesian round at Mandalika followed Marc Marquez's victory in Japan, according to Adnkronos. By the end of the weekend, the MotoGP championship lead had changed hands twice.

The opening sessions also brought competition in the smaller classes. Infobae reported that David Almansa led the first day of Moto3 running, just 88 thousandths of a second ahead of Máximo Quiles.

On October 9, David Alonso qualified for Q2 in Moto2 after an incident-filled practice session. El Colombiano reported that he arrived at the season's 17th round fourth in the championship.

On October 10, Marquez won the MotoGP Sprint for Ducati, finishing ahead of Ogura and Di Giannantonio. Martin finished fourth, allowing Marquez to move ahead of him in the championship, according to La Repubblica.

Aprilia's Sprint unravelled at the first corner. Fanpage reported that Bezzecchi and Raul Fernandez both went out, while La Repubblica described Bezzecchi's crash as following contact with Fernandez.

Sunday, October 11, brought a reversal. Bezzecchi won the Grand Prix ahead of Fernandez and Martin, giving Aprilia the podium sweep reported by ANSA. Fanpage reported an even broader result for the manufacturer: four bikes in the first four positions, with Martin returning to the championship lead.

In Moto2 that day, Izan Guevara won at Mandalika. Infobae reported that the race was marked by a multiple-rider crash and a mechanical problem for Alex Escrig.

Bezzecchi leaves Mandalika with the Grand Prix victory after his early Sprint exit. Martin is back at the top of the MotoGP standings, according to Fanpage, reversing the lead change produced by Marquez's Saturday win.

The supplied reports do not give the updated points gap or Marquez's exact Sunday finishing position. They establish Aprilia's dominance clearly: ANSA identifies Bezzecchi, Fernandez and Martin as the top three, while Fanpage reports Aprilia riders filling all four leading places.
