After a dramatic Sprint, Marc Marquez leads the world championship heading into today's Indonesian MotoGP race.
The reigning champion snatched the title advantage from Jorge Martin after the Aprilia star suffered tyre pressure issues while leading, then lost two more places after a late scare.
A disastrous Sprint for Aprilia had begun with Raul Fernandez and Marco Bezzecchi, first and second on the grid, tangling at Turn 1.
All of which left Ai Ogura, in second, as the only RS-GP on the podium, between Marquez and Fabio di Giannantonio.
Aprilia riders will be out to make amends for the missed Sprint opportunity in the grand prix, when victory for Martin would also guarantee he retakes the title lead.
Nine-time world champion Marquez has never finished a Sunday race at Mandalika before, but will be buoyed by his Saturday speed and ready to take on the RS-GPs.

Ogura vs Acosta
Ai Ogura is now on Pedro Acosta's rear wheel, if he overtakes, it'll be an Aprilia 1-2-3-4.
08:34
Ogura vs Marc Marquez
Ai Ogura demotes Marc Marquez to sixth place, if it finishes like this Jorge Martin will retake the title lead by two points.
08:33
Fernandez fading
After losing the lead Raul Fernandez is fading from the flying Bezzecchi.
The big question is whether Jorge Martin can catch the Trackhouse rider who is now two-seconds ahead of him.
08:33
Acosta attacks
Pedro Acosta has presumably gone the 60% of laps needed for the tyre pressure and makes a genuine pass on Marc Marquez for 4th.

Marco Bezzecchi leads
9 laps to go and Marco Bezzecchi finally passes Raul Fernandez to take the lead into Turn 1.
Fernandez goes slightly wide.
08:28
Acosta makes way again!
Pedro Acosta gifts 4th place to Marc Marquez again... This is getting a bit farcical. They are both trying to raise their front tyre pressure so nobody wants to lead the group.
08:27
Jorge Martin
The back and forth between Marc Marquez and Pedro Acosta means Jorge Martin is now four-seconds ahead and facing no threat from behind.
But can Martin close the 2.7s gap to team-mate Bezzecchi and join the victory battle?
08:25
Marc Marquez lets Acosta pass!
Now Marc Marquez returns the favour and gifts fourth place back to Pedro Acosta!
Presumably, Marquez also has tyre pressure issues.

Marc Marquez on the move - Acosta tyre pressure issues?
Marc Marquez retakes 4th place from Pedro Acosta, but replays show Acosta let the Ducati rider past. Presumably he's got tyre pressure issues with the clear air ahead.
Jorge Martin is almost three-seconds ahead of Marquez/Acosta.

Marco Bezzecchi sets the first 1m 29s lap of the race as he hounds Fernandez.

Fernandez holds off Bezzecchi
Raul Fernandez is keeping Marco Bezzecchi at bay; it's safe to say they are not best friends after the events of yesterday and the warm-up...

Toprak Razgatlioglu pits
Toprak Razgatlioglu, who was unsure he could do the race distance with his recently dislocated shoulder, pulls into the pits. That's both Pramac Yamaha riders out.
Fabio Quartararo is the leading Yamaha in tenth, with Alex Rins in 13th,

Bezzecchi putting pressure on Fernandez
Marco Bezzecchi is within half a second of race leader Raul Fernandez, who might be starting to struggle with the finger injury.
