The victory helped to eliminate the pain of the second-place finish in Saturday’s sprint.
Acosta finished second, with Aldeguer’s teammate Alex Marquez completing the Podium.
Aldeguer is the first rookie to win a MotoGP race since Jorge Martin achieved the feat at the Austrian Grand Prix in 2021. His victory at the Indonesian Grand Prix made him the second youngest MotoGP winner in 20-year-old history.
Mark Marquez crashes and damages his collarbone
Paul sitter Betzekki got off to a terrible start in the race, finishing sixth after his first second turn, and the Aprilia rider was too strong to climb to the lead, touching him so hard.
When he returned to the fight, Betzecchi tweaked the back of Marquez’s Ducati, the pair suffered gravel wounds at high speed, and Marquez seemed to have a great discomfort after the fall.
The Spaniard, who won his seventh MotoGP Championship at last week’s Japan Grand Prix, walks away, clasping on the side of the track for a few minutes, stunning his legs and clenching his shoulders.
The crash continued a terrifying luck streak for Marquez at the Mandalica International Circuit.
However, there seemed to be no bad blood between Betzecchi and Marquez as they shared a quick handshake before Marquez was taken to the medical center.
After the race, it was revealed that Marquez had suffered a collarbone injury as a result of a collision with Betzecchi, the team said.
“Mark Marquez suffered an injury to his right collarbone as a result of today’s crash at Indonesia’s Grand Prix,” Ducati said in a statement on social media.
“Spanish riders will travel to Madrid (Spain) tonight for further medical examinations and decide what treatments they should follow.”
The injury was on the shoulder of the arm that was broken at the Spanish Grand Prix opening in Jersés in July 2020, which left him out for a long time and required some surgeries.
Ducati afternoons got worse from bad after a few laps when two-time champion Francesco Bagnaia’s bike slid from under him and dumped it on the asphalt.
