Stairs or ramps haven't been seen in a while, and would be a break from let's-drive-really-fast-for-everything. It would make for a good design challenge. Either something exciting like the 2013 pyramids, or something you have to do repeatedly to score particularly well.
And on a possibly off-topic note, there is a
stair climbing robot in the upcoming
Big Hero 6 movie
(alongside a cat with rocket boots and a robot arm playing table tennis in the same scene around 0:17-0:19).
