As the lights went out, Jorge Martin made a sharp start from pole, but Marc Marquez quickly snatched the lead with a late-braking dive at Turn 1. Out in front, the masterclass began while chaos unfolded immediately right behind them.

Turn 3 delivered major drama when Alex Marquez completely misjudged his braking zone and piled into the back of Pedro Acosta. The heavy impact eliminated both riders on the spot alongside an innocent bystander, Fabio di Giannantonio.

At the front, Marquez set an untouchable pace, steadily stretching his advantage to over a second over Martin. The Spaniard controlled the race with supreme poise to cruise toward a very comfortable victory.
