Freja tacks in front of Samuel and takes a correct 15.
Freja finds himself locked up between Samuel and Ronja, can not do his penalty.
But Freja does not make any effort to do it as soon as possible.
After a shift, samuel tacks and ronja tacks too.
At this moment, Freja decides to jibe to make his penalty, hit ronja state starboard and Ronja takes a RRS10.
Freja makes her penalty 15 and continues his race.

RRS10 received is false because Freja must make his penalty as soon as possible and away from the fleet without block it. After receive a penality, he can't be STB, and therefore breaks RRS22.2.

Freja should have done a second 360, but doesn't, and therefore break RRS 22.2.

Decision:
Ronja request cancelation: ACCEPTED, no further action against Ronja.
Freja DSQ for breaking RRS 22.2
