How is vmlinux loaded?

Good afternoon!
Question for Linux gurus.
There is CentOS 7, 2 hdd-sda and sdb. On both, I created /boot and assembled them into a software RAID1.
Tell me, how will the process of loading the vmlinuz kernel then take place, if the bootloader is, in fact, not on the first device, but on both?

Take which is indicated.
stage 1:
Reads the information from the MBR of the disk specified in the BIOS and loads the rest of the bootloader into memory.
stage 2:
1536px-GNU_GRUB_on_MBR_partitioned_hard_

RAID1 is, in fact, a fiction, duplicated media.
Your bootloader will count, and only in a single copy, if both copies are identical.
