Aprilia's Aleix Espargaro claimed pole position on Saturday.
Ducati's Enea Bastianini, from third, then won the sprint race and hope for a second win on Sunday.
Pecco Bagnaia and Marc Marquez both crashed out of the sprint.
It means Bagnaia holds a one-point lead over Jorge Martin heading into Sunday's grand prix.
Franco Morbidelli must serve a double long lap penalty in the grand prix after clattering Marco Bezzecchi in Saturday's sprint.
