Many alliances will realize they have no hope of getting to 12 Gears, and they'll start scoring Fuel after their 6th Gear. Also, many teams will understand there is a very small benefit to scoring more than 40kPa during quals so they'll stop at that point and focus on gear cycling/defense/climbing depending on how much time is left in the match.

Alliances only need to cycle 9 gears. 3 are pre-populated. However gears 6,7 and 8 by themselves get you no points. You have to get to gear 9 to get the final points. I suspect the majority of teams will stop at gear 5.
Would this change your thinking on the number of balls scored?
