He initially found himself in seventh place at the beginning, moved up to sixth following Miguel Oliveira's fall, advanced to fifth after Franco Morbidelli veered off course, and then climbed to fourth by pressing Pedro Acosta into an error at the sixteenth turn.

After several attempts to overtake Marques, who veered off course at the twelfth turn, Bagnaia managed to pass him entering the thirteenth turn. However, during this maneuver, Bagnaia and Marquez collided and both were brought down.

Following the race, Bagnaia was taken to the medical center, but there has been no information released regarding his status.

The interaction between the two riders elevated Pedro Acosta to a third-place finish, though he was nearly 15 seconds adrift of the first-place finisher

Brad Binder secured a fourth-place finish, while Enea Bastianini climbed up to fifth position from a 14th-place start. Franco Morbidelli landed in sixth place, followed by Fabio Di Giannantonio, Marco Bezzecchi, Alex Rins, and Jack Miller, who completed the top 10.
