Bagnaia found himself trapped under Marquez's Ducati for a brief period as they both slid.
However, he stood up and motioned towards Marquez, indicating he was fine.
He departed with his leathers ripped and worn on his arm, yet possibly lucky that the harm wasn't more severe.
Bagnaia visited the medical facility for an examination.
Within half an hour following their mishap, Bagnaia and Marquez were observed meandering through the paddock, no longer in their racing suits, and appearing unscathed.
Stewards are currently 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 at the Aragon MotoGP on Sunday has propelled him to the top of the championship standings, now leading by 23 points.
