Following the incident, Bagnaia and Marquez were seen exchanging heated gestures in the gravel, but it appeared they had not sustained serious injuries at first look.
Marquez veered off track, holding onto third place with just six laps left.
Starting from the fourth spot, Bagnaia attempted to pass him.
Bagnaia's Ducati appeared to be closely trailing right behind Marquez's.
The two bicycles became entangled as they veered off the path.
For a few moments, Bagnaia found himself trapped under Marquez's Ducati during their slide.
However, he stood up and gestured towards Marquez, indicating that he was fine.
He left the scene with his leathers ripped and marked on his arm, possibly lucky that the damage wasn't more severe.
Bagnaia was taken to the healthcare facility for an examination.
Less than half an hour after their mishap, Bagnaia and Marquez were seen strolling through the paddock area, no longer in their racing suits, and appearing to be without injuries.
Stewards are currently conducting an investigation into the incident.
Defending MotoGP champion Bagnaia began Sunday three points behind the championship frontrunner, Jorge Martin.
Martin's second-place finish in Sunday's Aragon MotoGP race has propelled him to the top of the championship standings, where he now holds a 23-point lead.
Marc Marquez emerged as the victor in the race.
