Overview
- The opening start was red-flagged after a Turn 1 pile-up involving Axel Bassani, Tetsuta Nagashima, Bahattin Sofuoglu, Michael van der Mark and Tarran Mackenzie, with a 20-lap restart following.
- Toprak Razgatlioglu switched to a softer SC1 front tyre for the restart, controlled the pace, and beat Nicolo Bulega by 1.948 seconds for his 20th win of 2025.
- Bulega closed the gap mid-race before front-tyre drop ended his charge, leaving the title deficit at 41 points with two races still to run at Estoril.
- Alvaro Bautista finished third despite a mid-race front-brake issue that forced lever adjustments, trimming his gap to injured third-place points holder Danilo Petrucci to 15.
- Razgatlioglu started the day from pole after a 1:34.203 Superpole lap record, while absences and issues shaped the field, including Petrucci and Sam Lowes declared unfit, Michael Rinaldi ruled out, DNFs for Yari Montella and Iker Lecuona, and a technical black-and-orange for Sofuoglu.
