Answer:

The bike whose position has greater y-coordinate.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Dorrian plotted the co-ordinates of the bikes with second on the x-axis and distance traveled on the y-axis, the x-coordinates of the two bikes will be the same.

But, the bike which went faster will have the greater y-coordinate and which followed the earlier will have the smaller y-coordinate.

Hence, the bike which has greater y-coordinate will win the race.
