Third and fourth beats for Izan Guevara (GasGas Aspar) and Carlos Tatay (CFMoto PruestelGP), who are ahead of the rookie Diogo Moreira (KTM MT Helmets – MSI), Riccardo rossi (Honda SIC58 Squadra Corse) and Japanese Kaito Toba (KTM CIP).

The Top Ten is closed by Tatsuki suzuki (Honda Leopard), Ryusei Yamanaka (KTM MT Helmets – MSI) and Deniz Oncu (KTM Tech 3). Good performance for Nicholas Fabio Carraro (who replaces the injured Matteo Bertelle on the KTM of Team Avintia) 14th time.
