Acosta (Red Bull KTM Ajo/Kalex) made a strong start, taking the lead in the opening meters of the race before being overtaken by Arón Canet (Pons Wegow Los40/Kalex). Manuel González (Correos Prepago Yamaha VR46 Master Camp/Kalex) occupied third place, while Tony Arbolino (Elf Marc VDS/Kalex) sat in fourth.

By the third lap, Acosta had reclaimed the lead. Shortly afterward, Fermín Aldeguer (Beta Tools SpeedUp/Boscoscuro) moved into podium positions, overtaking González and Arbolino.

In a relatively uneventful race in the top positions, Acosta managed to build a gap of around one second over Canet, who, in turn, created a lead of over two seconds ahead of Aldeguer.

The battle for fifth place heated up about ten laps from the end, with Arbolino coming under pressure from Jake Dixon (Inde GasGas Aspar/Kalex). Dixon eventually executed a successful overtake but made a mistake, relinquishing the position.

With just two laps to go, Dixon reclaimed fifth place from Arbolino, capitalizing on a moment when the Italian nearly lost control of his bike.

At the front, the order remained unchanged until the finish. Acosta celebrated his victory with an impressive lead of nearly two seconds over Canet, with Aldeguer completing the podium. Dixon managed to secure fourth place, overtaking González on the final lap.
