Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

In a race, if you overtake the person who is in second position, you take their place. Therefore, you become the new second-place runner. The person who was previously in second place drops to third position. You do NOT become first because you only overtook one person, not the leader. Option B (Second) is correct.
