MotoGP is headed to the Mandalika International Circuit for the Indonesian Grand Prix, following Marc Marquez’s title victory in Japan last weekend.

The Spaniard’s incredible comeback came after it was revealed that he had almost retired following his horrific crash at the start of the 2020 season.

Marquez had previously undergone four surgeries to treat his broken humerus from the accident, but has since had his most dominant season since 2019.

His championship victory at the Grand Prix of Japan saw Marquez take his seventh MotoGP title, matching the record of his rival Valentino Rossi.

Marquez has previously struggled in Indonesia, failing to finish a race at the event. If he can win the race this weekend, he will match Rossi’s record for wins at 23 different circuits, only being beaten by Mick Doohan with 24.

Francesco Bagnaia took his second victory of 2025 at the Grand Prix of Japan after also claiming his first sprint win of the year earlier in the weekend.

Bagnaia previously won the Grand Prix of Indonesia in 2023 after starting from 13th on the grid, and also secured a third-place finish at the same race last season.

Where is the 2025 MotoGP Grand Prix of Indonesia being held?

The 2025 MotoGP Grand Prix of Indonesia will be held at the Mandalika International Circuit, which sits on the coast near Baturiti.

The circuit is one of the newer tracks, having only opened in 2021, and has only hosted three MotoGP races so far. Because the track is so new, there have been no repeat winners of the Grand Prix of Indonesia.

The Indonesian Grand Prix had previously taken place twice at the Sentul International Circuit in 1996 and 1997, but was dropped from the calendar following the Asian financial crisis.

The Mandalika International Circuit is 4.313km (2.680mi) long and describes itself as a street circuit, making it the only street track since the BRNO Circuit’s original layout in 1986.

What happened at the 2024 MotoGP Grand Prix of Indonesia?

Jorge Martin won the 2024 Grand Prix of Indonesia after a strong lights-to-flag performance, following a disappointing tenth-place finish in Saturday’s Sprint race.

In the mid-stages of the race, the Spaniard faced pressure from Pedro Acosta, but the rookie Tech3 rider was unable to take the lead.

Enea Bastianini also made a charge for the leading pair, but with seven laps to go he crashed at Turn 1 and was unable to finish the race.

Martin’s teammate Franco Morbidelli was able to hold off competition for much of the grand prix, but with five laps remaining, was passed by Bagnaia for third place.

Nine riders were unable to finish the race, including Marquez who experienced a technical issue with his Gresini.

What happened at the 2024 Moto2 and Moto3 Grand Prix of Indonesia races?

Aron Canet took his second Moto2 victory at the Grand Prix of Indonesia after starting the race from pole position.

Ai Ogura briefly took the lead at the start of the race, but Canet was quick to take the place back before extending a gap of 6.128 seconds when he crossed the finish line.

Ogura then got caught behind Alonso Lopez, but was able to pass to reclaim his second place, leaving Lopez to fight for the final podium position with Fermin Aldeguer, Darryn Binder and Joe Roberts.

Aldeguer also faced a fierce battle with Somikat Chantra in the opening stages, which saw the pair make contact. Chantra was left out of the race after having his foot run over by Aldeguer.

The Moto3 Grand Prix of Indonesia saw a number of drivers scrapping for the race, with David Alonso pulling ahead to take the victory.

The young Spaniard started from fifth, but was able to keep up with the leading pack and claim his ninth win of the 2024 season.

Adrian Fernandez held the lead into the final lap, after Collin Veijer had crashed whilst leading the race. A pack of five riders fought for the lead in the closing stages, before Alonso was able to make his strike.
