Bagnaia and Marquez were visibly upset with each other in the gravel following the incident, but it seemed, initially, that they had not sustained serious injuries.
Marquez veered off course, holding onto third place with six laps left to go.
Starting from the fourth spot, Bagnaia attempted to pass him.
Bagnaia's Ducati appeared to be firmly attached right in front of Marquez's motorcycle.
The two motorcycles became entangled and veered off the course.
For a few moments, 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 moved off, his leathers ripped and abraded on his arm, yet possibly lucky that the harm wasn't more severe.
Bagnaia visited the health facility for an examination.
Half an hour after the incident occurred, Bagnaia and Marquez were seen strolling through the paddock, no longer in their racing suits, and appeared to be unharmed.
Stewards are conducting an investigation into the incident.
Defending MotoGP titleholder Bagnaia began Sunday three points behind the current championship frontrunner, Jorge Martin.
Martin's second-place finish at Sunday's Aragon MotoGP has propelled him into the championship lead, now holding a 23-point advantage.
Marc Marquez emerged as the victor in the race.
