The lightweight class showdown at the Lusail International Circuit delivered a masterclass in racecraft as David Almansa delivered a flawless performance from the opening corner. By controlling the pace out front, he successfully denied newly crowned world champion Maximo Quiles the chance to equal David Alonso's historic single-season win record. Snatching the holeshot from pole position, Almansa never looked back and dictated terms throughout the entire race distance.
As twilight descended over the desert, Almansa steadily pulled clear of the chasing pack, ultimately taking the chequered flag 2.516 seconds ahead of his nearest rival. Adrian Fernandez put up a stellar fight to claim the runner-up spot on the podium, while Quiles had to settle for a hard-earned third place after a tense battle in the leading group.
Further down the field, Veda Ega Pratama staged an incredible recovery drive. Starting down in 14th following a grid penalty, the Indonesian talent carved his way through the traffic to secure an impressive fourth position at the line. Alvaro Carpe rounded out the top five ahead of Joel Kelso in sixth, showcasing the immense depth of competitive talent in the fiercely contested class.
The race was far from straightforward, punctuated by dramatic penalties and incidents. David Munoz threw away a strong early-race position after receiving a long lap penalty followed by a double long lap penalty for separate clashes with Brian Uriarte and Eddie O’Shea. Meanwhile, riders like Ryusei Yamanaka kept their cool to salvage a points-paying ninth place amidst a flurry of crashes from the likes of Adrian Cruces and Joel Esteban.
This thrilling encounter in Qatar highlights the relentless pressure and fierce rivalries defining the current racing season. Read our in-depth analysis and stay tuned for more paddock updates as the championship heads toward its dramatic conclusion.
