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

Marquez veered off track, holding onto third place with six laps to go.

Starting from the fourth spot, Bagnaia attempted a pass.

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 brief period, 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 departed with his leathers ripped and worn on his arm, yet possibly lucky that the harm wasn't more severe.

Bagnaia was taken to the medical center for an examination.

Less than half an hour after their mishap, Bagnaia and Marquez were observed strolling through the paddock, no longer in their racing suits, and appearing to be unharmed.

Stewards are conducting an investigation into the incident.

Defending MotoGP titleholder Bagnaia went into Sunday's race just 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.

Marc Marquez emerged victorious in the race.
