Rea melakukan manuver berani selepas start dengan menyerang Tom Sykes. Melalui sisi luar tikungan, rider PATA Honda ini menyalip Sykes dan langsung naik dari posisi 5 menjadi 2. Setelah itu, pertarungannya hanya dengan Sylvain Guintoli.
Sayangnya, Guintoli terpaksa terhenti karena tergelincir. Ia kehilangan traksi ban belakang dan melintir. Efeknya, Rea mempunya jeda waktu cukup jauh dengan kelompok rider di belakangnya. (otosport.co.id)
