Marc Marquez will start 12th on the grid which is very disappointing for the team as they came into the Indonesian GP with high hopes. The Double crash from Marquez in qualifying has let down the team. The Gresini racing team and Marc Marquez will have to do some hard work during the Tissot sprint race on Sunday.
Because of his crash the yellow flag was brought in and many riders had to set their lap times again. This gave trouble to Reiging world champion Bagnaia who will start from the second row at 4th as he couldnt set the fastest time after that. MotoGP legend Valentino Rossi's Own MotoGP team Pertamina Enduro VR46 racing team's Bezzechi will start in the front row alongside Martin. Tomorrow there will be a sprint race and following that we will have main race.
