Bagnaia and Marquez were seen angrily signaling to each other in the gravel following the incident, but, upon initial observation, they seemed to have escaped serious harm.

Marquez veered off track, in the final six laps, while holding onto third place.

Starting from fourth place, Bagnaia attempted a pass.

The rear of Bagnaia's Ducati appeared to be closely attached to the front of Marquez's motorcycle.

The two bicycles became entangled and veered off the path.

For a few moments, Bagnaia found himself trapped under Marquez's Ducati while they were skidding.

However, he stood up and signaled to Marquez, indicating he was fine.

He moved off, his leathers scratched and worn on his arm, yet possibly lucky that the harm wasn't more severe.

Bagnaia visited the medical center for an examination.

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

Stewards are conducting an investigation into the incident.

Defending MotoGP titleholder Bagnaia began Sunday three points behind the current leader in the championship standings, Jorge Martin.

Martin's second-place finish at the Aragon MotoGP on Sunday has propelled him into the championship lead, now holding a 23-point advantage.

Marc Marquez emerged victorious in the race.
