Correct answer

According to Annex I of the RGC (section 4.2), any vehicle which, when the green arrow comes on, is in the lane that must be used by those going in the direction of the arrow must move off in that direction. As the yellow vehicle wants to turn right, the grey one is also obliged to turn.
