For the second time in 2023, Pedro Acosta secured two wins in a row in the Moto2 World Championship. At an Indian GP race that began with chaos and a red flag, the rider led from the first to the last lap and rivals couldn’t keep his pace.

After the start, an incident involved five riders at turn one. Although all were conscious, it was necessary to red-flag the race to resolve the situation.
The race resumed for 12 laps. Jeremy Alcoba (QJMotor Gresini/Kalex) was deemed responsible for the incident due to irresponsible riding and was penalized with a Long Lap.

In the restart, Jake Dixon (Inde GasGas Aspar/Kalex) had a good getaway from pole position, but Sergio García (Pons Wegow Los40/Kalex) was stronger and took the lead in front of Pedro Acosta (Red Bull KTM Ajo/Kalex)… until Acosta overtook him in the opening lap. Tony Arbolino (Elf Marc VDS/Kalex) settled into third place.

After Arbolino passed García, the podium positions remained stable, with Acosta pulling away. On the third lap, Alonso López (GT Trevisan SpeedUp/Boscoscuro) crashed and collected Dixon while they were battling for fifth place. López retired from the race.

Similar to Acosta in the lead, Arbolino also pulled away in second place. On the other hand, García couldn’t solidify his third position, and in the final laps, he came under pressure from Joe Roberts (Italtrans Racing Team/Kalex). The American executed a spectacular overtake in turns eight/nine on the penultimate lap.

García put up a strong fight for third place, but Roberts secured it in the closing corners. With no significant challenges, Acosta was a clear winner, beating Arbolino by 3.543s. Manuel González (Correos Prepago Yamaha VR46 Master Camp Team/Kalex) completed the top five ahead of the surprising Zonta van den Goorbergh (Fieten Olie Racing GP/Kalex).
