At the front, Nicolo Bulega took the lead while ܫMichael Van Der Mark made a stunning start from the third row as he moved into third at the start of lap two.
A♉ double Long-lap penalty was handed out to Alex Lowes due to jumping 𝐆the start.
With 18 laps to go, Toprak Raz🅘gatlioglu had enough of second place as he swooped through on Bulega to lead.
Des💫pite taking the lead, Razgatlioglu was 🍸unable to break Bulega who was very quick in the final two sectors.
That all changed 𒊎with 14 laps to💞 go as Razgatlioglu finally broke clear by over a second.
In the battle for the podium Michaeܫl Van Der Mark was overtaken by Andrea Locatelli with 10 laps to go.
But the Dutch ridꦛer dug in and remained close as Remyꦛ Gardner also closed in.
Gardner eventually gained P4 off Van Der Mark but the gap to ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱🦄ᩚᩚᩚLocatelli was too much to close down.
