I wanted to understand the racing events, I know that Samuel allowed the space when bear down, but what said samuel when Ilya ask RTT? If immediately next request of RTT he said tack, imo ilya broke rule 10, BUT, if ilya ask RTT and samuel did not reply, imo samuel broke rule 19 and 20.2c.
20.2 Responding
(c) A hailed boat shall respond either by tacking as soon as
possible, or by immediately replying ‘You tack’ and then
giving the hailing boat room to tack and avoid her.

I evaluate how protested, I have no information about the race.
