Bagnaia and Marquez were seen making angry gestures towards each other in the gravel following the incident, though it appeared at first that they had escaped serious harm.
Marquez veered off course, holding onto third place with six laps left to go.
Bagnaia, starting from the fourth spot, attempted to pass him.
Bagnaia's Ducati appeared to be closely trailing right behind Marquez's.
The two bicycles 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 left with his leathers scraped and worn on his arm, but possibly lucky that the harm was not more severe.
Bagnaia visited the health facility for an examination.
Less than half an hour after their mishap, Bagnaia and Marquez were observed strolling in the paddock area, no longer wearing their racing suits, and appeared to be without injuries.
Stewards are conducting an investigation into the incident.
Defending MotoGP titleholder Bagnaia approached Sunday's race with a three-point deficit behind the championship frontrunner, Jorge Martin.
Martin's second-place finish at the Aragon MotoGP on Sunday has put him at the top of the championship standings, leading by 23 points.
Marc Marquez emerged victorious in the race.
