Following the incident, Bagnaia and Marquez were seen making angry gestures towards each other in the gravel, though initially, it appeared they hadn't sustained any serious injuries.
Marquez veered off course, holding onto third place with six laps left.
Starting from the fourth spot, Bagnaia attempted to pass him.
Bagnaia's Ducati appeared to be clinging closely to Marquez's front end.
The two bicycles became entangled and veered off the path.
For a few moments, Bagnaia found himself trapped beneath Marquez's Ducati while they were skidding.
Yet, he stood and motioned towards Marquez, indicating he was fine.
He strolled off, his arm's leathers scratched and worn, yet possibly lucky that the harm wasn't more severe.
Bagnaia was taken to the medical center for an examination.
Within 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 looking into the incident.
Defending MotoGP titleholder Bagnaia started Sunday three points behind the current championship frontrunner, Jorge Martin.
Martin's second-place finish on Sunday at the Aragon MotoGP has propelled him to the top of the championship standings, now leading by 23 points.
Marc Marquez emerged as the victor in the race.
