MotoGP Indonesia: Where to watch the Mandalika race: Sky and TV8 TV schedules, streaming on NOW

After the Motegi round in Japan , it's time for the MotoGP protagonists to get back on track with another event in Asia. It's time for the Indonesian Grand Prix , scheduled for Friday 3rd to Sunday 5th October 2025 at the Mandalik circuit in . The 18th round of the season will be the first for Marc Marquez as nine-time world champion, thus joining and equalling Valentino Rossi and Mike Hailwood . The Spanish rider of the factory Ducati has returned to the MotoGP world throne, six years after his last time. His seventh title in the premier class came with five races to spare, on the same track where he had already celebrated the 2014, 2016 and 2018 world championships. In Indonesia, where the race has been held since 2022 , he has yet to win and will try to do so now that his ultimate goal has been achieved. At Motegi, where Marc finished second in both the Sprint and the race, teammate Pecco Bagnaia made a great comeback. After taking pole, the Italian won the Saturday race for the first time this year and the Sunday race for the second time. Pecco, who stood on the top step of the podium at Mandalika two years ago, will try to finish 2025 on a high note and then fight on equal terms with Marc next season. One goal for Bagnaia could be to try to overtake Alex Marquez , second in the championship. The Ducati Gresini rider struggled in Japan, finishing tenth in the Sprint and sixth in the race, with his advantage over the Turin native dropping to 66 points. Marco Bezzecchi , who finished fourth in the Motegi race for Aprilia after crashing at the start of the Sprint, will be aiming to return to the podium. Former world champion Jorge Martin has suffered yet another injury this season, a compound fracture of his right collarbone. Following surgery, he will be forced to sit out the Indonesian GP, where he triumphed last year. The VR46 team will also be worth keeping an eye on, especially with Franco Morbidelli , who finished fifth in Japan. Honda will immediately attempt another podium, after returning to the podium at their home race at Motegi with Joan Mir . KTM will try to bounce back with Pedro Acosta and Yamaha with Fabio Quartararo .
