My question: I want a solution that applies it with this equation D=RT. Not a repetition of the test explanation pls. Moreover, is there a difference here between Average speed and speed?

. Iam not sure what repetition you are mentioning . But, this question is a relative speed ques and even you use D = ST , it boils down to same the formula/principle of relative speed
Let time = T
Distance travelled by Marcus = 207T
and Distance travelled by James = 217T
Now,
The time taken by James to lead Markus by one lap is:: 217T - 210T = 25
or 10 T = 25
or T = 2.5 hrs
