The 26-year-old was inadvertently run over
In frightening scenes, Bagnaia was then inadvertently run over by two of his rivals while lying on the track.
The 26-year-old initially tried to get to his feet, before collapsing to the ground as medics rushed on to help him.
As the scary scene unfolded, Bagnaia’s girlfriend Domizia Castagnini was in floods of tears.
The fashion buyer and social media star was consoled by a member of Bagnaia’s team, Ducati.
Bagnaia and Domizia are claimed to have been together for around seven years.
After initially receiving treatment on site, Bagnaia was taken to hospital.
On Bagnaia’s condition, MotoGP Medical Director Dr. Angel Charte told DAZN: “Pecco has had severe polytrauma, a motorbike ran over him in the femoral and tibial area.
“We have taken x-rays of this area and have detected a small injury that we don’t know if it is current or old.
“We need to do an urgent CAT scan and that is why we have sent him to the general hospital.
“At cranial, thoracic and abdominal levels, he has been normal at all times. He was conscious and oriented.
“The image we have seen is from conventional radiology, so it is difficult to be sure that there is no fracture. It is necessary to do a CAT scan.”
Bagnaia yesterday shared a picture of himself from hospital, sat on a bed with a thumb up.
He captioned it: “Today I can only say thanks.”
The Moto GP star received plenty of nice comments.
Fabio Quartararo wrote: “Forzaaaa.”
And Luca Salvadori commented: “Now we have doubts that you have the bones of Adamantio like Wolverine!”
Moto GP themselves responded: “So glad to you’re relatively OK, Pecco! Get well soon, Champ!”
Marc Marquez added prayer and bicep emojis.
