The judges are trained to give a couple of extra seconds, especially if it
sounds like the team is winding down. If it's 30 seconds or so over and no
sign of the presentation ending, then the judges will politely interrupt
the team and begin the Q&A.

It is recommended to rehearse the presentation and make sure it is less
than five minutes.
