The Pramac rider crashed out of a commanding lea🔜d in the 2023 Indonesian GP, while on Saturday this year he fell from first on the opening lap of the sprint.

Leading from pole𝄹 on Sunday for the 27-lap grand prix, Martin “got revenge” on the Mandalika circuit to score his third main race win of the season.

Speaking after the rac🌃e, Martin says the memories of previous crashes weighed on his mind midway through the grand prix. 

“Yeah, I got revenꦆge from Mandalika,” Mꦚartin, who has grown his championship lead again, said.

“After last season’s crash, today was a difficult race, and after yesterday’s cr🥃ash also.

“After 13 laps I had some ghosts on my mind in corner 11, and then every lap in coꦇrner 16.

“I was try𝓡ing to be really careful. We had a lot༺ of wind from the side in that part.

“I was struggling to turn, it was like if I was riding a scooter. I know I was losing a lot in that part to Acosta, but I was thinking ‘Ok, if ཧI lose here I push in ot𓆉her parts’.

“So, I think I was really careful understanding the situation at the start of t🅰he race and then trying to push a bit more every lap.

“Acosta was incredible, he was pushing. Even the laps that I was t♒rying to make a gap, he was staying at under one second.

“S🥃o, for sure he is strong and I’m happy I performed really good.”

Martin had pressure from Tech3’s Pedro Acosta in the first half of t🦂he race, with his lead🤪 coming down to under eight tenths at one stage.

The Pramac rider eventually took the chequered flag 1.4s clear, though it did s🦂well to well over two seconds before Martin backed off on the final lap.

“I mean, I tried to be calm always,” he added.

“I tried ✨to be my best version, and even if the rider behind is one tenth or eight, it’s important to do the same⛄ things.

“I didn’t try to cha✨nge or push more or less. I was at my maximum, so it was Pedro who was catching and maki꧟ng mistakes.

“I was trying to ꦯdo always the same thing. This i▨s the way I try to perform to be better.”

Martin’s championship lead is provisionally at 21 points, though an impending 🌼tyre pressure investigatꦜion could demote Acosta out of second and promote Francesco Bagnaia.

This would see Martin’s championship lead shrink to 17 points ov꧙er Bagnaia.
