Marquez achieved consecutive victories for the first time since 2021, while Bagnaia closed in on Jorge Martin’s championship lead, now only seven points behind him due to Martin finishing 15th after a mistake. Bagnaia started from pole and maintained his lead ahead of Morbidelli and Martin, who managed to pass Morbidelli to take second place. Despite attempting to overtake Bagnaia, Martin’s move resulted in contact, enabling Morbidelli and Acosta to catch up. The rain started to fall as Martin closed the gap to Bagnaia but lost his chance to overtake by running wide. Martin and other riders switched to wet tires, only to change back to dry tires on Lap 10, effectively ending their chances of winning. Marquez led the race to claim victory, with Bagnaia finishing second and Bastianini third.
