Miguel Oliveira took his first victory in the Moto2 class and became the first Portuguese rider to win in the intermediate class. KTM took their first victory in Moto2, the first in the intermediate class since the 250cc 2008 British Grand Prix; this ended Kalex winning streak, which had started at the 2015 Argentine Grand Prix.

The race, scheduled to be run for 23 laps, was red-flagged on lap 16 due to a rain shower that fell on certain parts of the track. As the race already went through two-thirds of race distance, the race was stopped and the final results were taken at the end of the 15th lap and full points were awarded.
