Bagnaia and Marquez were seen angrily gesturing at one another in the gravel following the incident, but initially, it seemed they had not sustained serious injuries.

Marquez veered off course, protecting his third-place spot with just six laps left.

Starting from the fourth spot, Bagnaia attempted to pass him.

Bagnaia's Ducati appeared to be closely following right behind Marquez's front end.

The two bicycles became entangled and veered off the path.

For a few moments, Bagnaia found himself trapped under Marquez's Ducati during their slide.

However, he stood up and motioned towards Marquez, indicating that he was fine.

He left with his leather garments ripped and worn on his arm, but perhaps lucky that the harm wasn't more severe.

Bagnaia was taken to the health facility for an examination.

Less than half an hour after their mishap, Bagnaia and Marquez were seen strolling through the paddock area, no longer in their racing suits, and appeared to be without injuries.

Stewards are conducting an investigation into the incident.

Defending MotoGP champion Bagnaia began Sunday three points behind the current championship frontrunner, Jorge Martin.

Martin's second-place finish on Sunday at the Aragon MotoGP has put him at the top of the championship standings, leading by 23 points.

Marc Marquez clinched victory in the race.
