Background edit

The Indonesian Grand Prix returned to the championship calendar after an absence of 25 years at the new Pertamina Mandalika International Street Circuit in Central Lombok. On the Wednesday prior to race weekend, 20 MotoGP class riders met with Indonesian President Joko Widodo at the Merdeka Palace, then paraded through Jakarta streets on race machines, together with the President who rode a road machine. Roads were closed for the occasion, and fans lined the streets.[1][3]

Previously, the two world championship events in 1996 and 1997 were held at the Sentul International Circuit.

Riders' entries edit

In MotoGP and Moto2 classes the riders and teams were the same as the season entry list with no additional stand-in riders for the race.

In the Moto3 class, as in the Qatar round, Taiyo Furusato missed the round after having surgery due to a right ankle injury; he was not replaced. Gerard Riu replaced David Muñoz as Muñoz was under the minimum age.
