Out of the race before completing lap one, Fabio Di Giannantonio had to ret𝓰ire after his Ducati caught fire following contact with Alex Marquez at the start.

At the front, Vinales was continuing ꦛto lead as Acosta began lining up a move on Marquez for second.

Also out of the sprint was Augusto Fernandez as the GASGAS 𝐆Tech 3 KTM rid✨er crashed on lap one.

Lap three was a neck bre꧂aker for the chasing pack as Vinales went seven tenths quicker than Marq▨uez and Acosta.

Vinales then continued to open up his lead on lap four as J🌠orge Martin, who overtook Enea Bastianini for P4, began closing in on his fellow Spanish pair ahead.

On lpa five Marquez made a mistake in sector one 🉐which gave Vinales another huge amount of time.

Pressure mounted on Marquez from behind while the bat꧑tle for fifth saw Aleix Espargaro momentarily come through on Bastianini, before the Ducati rider regained the position.

After a failed overtake💦 on Marquez, Acosta was bumped down to third by Martin who pushed the rookie wide in tღhe process.

Vinales, who was seemingly in a league of his own, then lost a considerable amount of time to Marquez who was ꧃now the faste▨st rider on circuit [lap six]. But Vinales steadied the ship on lap eight and stopped losing time to Marquez.

Bagnaia finally mo🌄ved into the points with a move on Franco Morbidelli for ni♛nth, but the factory Ducati rider struggled to make further progress.

Bagnaia secured a♐nother spot b🎉efore the checkered flag dropped, thanks to a move on Raul Fernandez at turn ten.
