Overview
- David Munoz claimed his third victory of 2025, beating Jose Antonio Rueda by 1.618 seconds at Twin Ring Motegi.
- A brief mid‑race shower split the pack, and Munoz created the decisive gap by pushing hardest in the wet before controlling the re‑drying run to the flag.
- Starting from pole, Rueda dropped to tenth when the rain fell but recovered through the field to secure second place.
- Rookie Maximo Quiles finished third ahead of Valentin Perrone after fending off a last‑corner move for the final podium spot.
- Key swings included Taiyo Furusato’s crash and DNF, David Almansa’s late fall that lifted Adrian Fernandez to fifth, and Guido Pini serving a double long‑lap on his way to seventh.
