The Aspar rider, who broke his collarbone at Silverstone two weeks ago, missing the race, started third, with a good start seeing him immediately sit in behind polesitter David Almansa.

From the chase position, Quiles looked comfortable and happy to sit in behind for the first ten laps, making a move to the front when the pace dropped in the lead quartet.

A couple of downhill errors allowed hope for the riders behind, with Almansa back ahead, before the number 28 pulled the pin on the last lap, bringing his KTM over the line ahead by a 0.264s gap.

It is Quiles seventh win of the season, with a points finish at every race he has lined up on the grid for, his only non-scoring performance coming last time out in Britain.
