Francesco Bagnaia faced one of his toughest race starts yet, dropping from second to fourteenth in a surprising first-lap mishap. Meanwhile, Marc Marquez showcased his skill with a remarkable quadruple overtake outside turn two, propelling him from thirteenth to sixth. As the race progressed, Marquez surged forward, passing Maverick Vinales, to fourth place as Aleix Espargaro incurred a double Long Lap penalty for a jump start.
Bagnaia had trouble veering off the track, while Jorge Martin held on to the lead, with Marco Bezzecchi close behind. By lap seven, Alex Rins suffered setbacks in an incident, and Espargaro took his second penalty but only lost one position.
By the third lap's end, Bezzecchi closed the gap to less than six-tenths of a second between him and Martin, with Vinales also in contention. Martin, however, swiftly widened the lead, reaching eight-tenths on the next lap and a full second on lap seven, with Marquez now in third after Espargaro's penalty. Vinales narrowly missed fourth place in the final laps as Enea Bastianini surged past him. Pedro Acosta rebounded to secure sixth place after a close call earlier, leading among KTM riders on his Tech3 GasGas RC16. Fabio Di Giannantonio, Jack Miller, and Raul Fernandez secured the remaining sprint points.
