Davies was soon challenging him, however, and his Ducati hit the front at the midway point before he took command of the race.

Marco Melandri, who started on pole, finished third to complete the podium while Rea's main title challenger, Tom Sykes, was fourth as the gap increased to 70 points with four rounds remaining.
