They righted themselves, and came to play more defense against us. Then the 20 second sound was played and we began unfolding our arm. They drove over a bump and landed on their back, rolling around. We hit them with our arm while attempting to grab the tower, and they rolled around some more.

Just to add to this, the second time, we didn’t flip onto our backs... it was more of a face plant. 33 came along and hit us onto our back with their claw, leaving a nice hole in our latex and ripping part of it off. After the match the ref apologized for the missed call of the 10 second grace period. But we got our revenge in the elimination matches!
