Look in the blue box on G11

G11 DRIVE TEAMS may not cause significant or repeated delays to FIELD reset at the conclusion of the MATCH.
DRIVE TEAMS are expected to remove ROBOTS from the FIELD after the MATCH safely and swiftly. As a guideline, ROBOTS should be configurable in fewer than sixty (60) seconds. DRIVE TEAM efforts that either intentionally or unintentionally delay the FIELD reset process are not allowed. Examples of such delays include, but are not limited to:
A. prolonged assembly/disassembly of a ROBOT to transform it to its TRANSPORT CONFIGURATION
B. taking an excessive amount of time to exit the field after a MATCH is complete

No reason for A if there was no expectation to return to TC.
