Following the incident, Bagnaia and Marquez were seen exchanging heated gestures while in the gravel, but it appeared, initially, that they had not sustained serious injuries.
Marquez veered off course while holding onto third place, with just six laps left in the race.
Starting from the fourth spot, Bagnaia attempted to pass him.
Bagnaia's Ducati appeared to be firmly attached to the front end of Marquez's bike.
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 ripped and worn on his arm, possibly lucky that the harm wasn't more severe.
Bagnaia visited the health facility for an examination.
Half an hour following the incident, Bagnaia and Marquez were observed strolling in the paddock area, no longer in their racing gear, and appeared to be without injuries.
Authorities are conducting an inquiry into the event.
Defending MotoGP champion Bagnaia began Sunday three points behind the current championship frontrunner, Jorge Martin.
Martin's second-place finish at the Aragon MotoGP on Sunday has propelled him into the championship lead, now holding a 23-point advantage.
Marc Marquez emerged victorious in the race.
