MotoGP Indonesia: Aldeguer wins first race as Marquez injured on lap 1
"Rookie Fermin Aldeguer earned the first victory of his fledgling MotoGP career at the Indonesia Grand Prix, while newly crowned champion Marc Marquez crashed out and was injured after a crunching collision with Marco Bezzecchi. Gresini Racing rider Aldeguer surged past KTM's Pedro Acosta to take the lead on the 10th lap, eventually finishing well clear of the competition on Sunday."
"Pole-sitter Bezzecchi had an awful start to the race, finding himself in sixth place after the first two turns, and the Aprilia rider was a touch too forceful in his desperation to climb back up into the lead. As he charged back into the fray, Bezzecchi nudged the rear of Marquez's Ducati and the pair hurtled into the gravel at high speed, with Marquez appearing to be in significant discomfort after the fall."
"The Spaniard, who won his seventh MotoGP championship at last week's Japanese Grand Prix, was hunched over on the side of the track for a couple of minutes before staggering to his feet and lurching away while clutching his shoulder. The crash continued a dreadful streak of luck for Marquez at the Mandalika International Circuit, where he has never been able to finish a Grand Prix in four attem"
Fermin Aldeguer won his first MotoGP race at the Indonesian Grand Prix, taking the lead on lap 10 and finishing well clear of the field. Pedro Acosta finished second and Aldeguer's teammate Alex Marquez completed the podium. Aldeguer became the first rookie to win a MotoGP race since Jorge Martin in 2021 and the second-youngest MotoGP winner at age 20. Pole-sitter Marco Bezzecchi had a poor start, dropping to sixth early and, while charging back, clipped Marc Marquez's rear, sending both into the gravel. Marquez suffered a shoulder injury and has never finished a Grand Prix at Mandalika.
