checkered flag

Jorge Martin emerges victorious in the Indonesian Grand Prix, surpassing both Acosta and Bagnaia.

He now has a 21-point lead in the championship, following his first Sunday victory since the Le Mans race.

Last lap now. The leaders remain the same.

Lap 26 out of 27

There are just two laps remaining, and Martin is leading by 2.4 seconds ahead of Acosta, with Bagnaia in third place.

It looks like there's a front fender from a Yamaha near the last turn. It's unclear whose it is.

Lap 25 of 27: Martin has extended his lead to 2.2 seconds.

Due to the turmoil experienced during this race, merely 12 cyclists are expected to reach the end.

Lap 24 of 27

There are only four laps remaining. Martin is ahead of Acosta by 1.8 seconds, while Bagnaia holds the third position. The reigning world champion trails the second place by 3.6 seconds, making it unlikely for any changes in the top three unless something unexpected happens.

Bagnaia overtakes Morbidelli at Turn 10, securing a spot in the top three positions.

Lap 23 of 27:

Martin is ahead by 1.7 seconds from Acosta, while Bagnaia is closely pursuing Morbidelli for the third position.

Bagnaia moved up to fourth place when Bezzecchi, the VR46 team rider, went off track at Turn 10.

Lap 22 out of 27. Martin has extended his lead over Acosta to 1.6 seconds, making it seem unlikely that Acosta can catch up to win.

Bagnaia needs to overtake the two competitors in front of him to secure a podium finish and prevent his championship gap to Martin from increasing to 26 points.

That likely spells the end for his chances at winning the championship as well.

Bastianini has crashed at the first corner!

Lap 21 of 27

As they cross the line to begin lap 21, Martin has extended his lead over Acosta to 1.028 seconds. Meanwhile, Bastianini clocks the fastest lap with a time of 1 minute and 30.539 seconds.

Bastianini has eight laps left to achieve something remarkable. His speed is significantly superior compared to the others.

Lap 20 out of 27: Bastianini has just achieved his fastest lap yet in third place, clocking in half a second faster than the current race leader, Martin.

Lap 19 of 27

At the beginning of lap 19, Martin has extended his lead to 0.9 seconds. Bastianini has just recorded his fastest lap of the race with a time of 1 minute 30.658 seconds, trailing Acosta by two seconds.

Bagnaia remains in sixth place, and his chances of securing a podium finish are diminishing.

Lap 18 out of 27.

Martin's advantage has shrunk to just 0.645 seconds. Bastianini is 2.8 seconds behind Acosta, who is in second place. It's a tough challenge for the Ducati racer.

Bastianini skillfully overtakes Morbidelli on the inside of Turn 12, moving up to third place. It was an impressive maneuver.

Lap 17 of 27:

Acosta received a notification to switch to mapping 2, while Martin is ahead by 1.026 seconds.
