During the Moto2 FP2 session of the Indonesian GP Pedro Acosta crashed while disregarding the yellow flag that had been displayed due to a crash in turn 2.

This contravenes the specific instructions given and is considered "irresponsible riding" and a cause of danger to other competitors. It is therefore a violation of Art 1.21.2 and 1.22.2 of the FIM Grand Prix World Championship Regulations.

For the above reasons, the FIM MotoGP Board of Stewards imposed a "long lap penalty" for the Indonesia Moto 2 GP. (in accordance with Articles 3.2.1 and 3.3.2.3).
