سَبَقَكُمْ have surpassed you
A past verb 'outstripped / got ahead of' with '-kum' = 'you all' as object — 'who have surpassed you'. The doer (those ahead) is the 'who' before it. So they had pulled ahead in good deeds.

وَتَسْبِقُونَ and you will surpass
This is 'and' plus a present verb 'outstrip / get ahead', sound masculine plural ('-una' = 'you all') — 'and you will surpass...'. It pairs with the pronoun-preposition next. The same practice also puts them ahead of others.
