Bagnaia and Marquez were seen making angry gestures towards each other in the gravel, but it appeared at first that they had not sustained any serious injuries.

Marquez veered off track, while trying to hold onto third place, 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.

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 to signal to Marquez, indicating he was fine.

He departed, his leathers ripped and worn on his arm, yet arguably lucky that the harm wasn't more severe.

Bagnaia visited 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 appearing to be uninjured.

Stewards are conducting an investigation into the incident.

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

Securing second place in Sunday's Aragon MotoGP, Martin has now taken a 23-point lead in the championship standings.

Marc Marquez clinched victory in the race.
