Not sure that all needs to be behind a spoiler but I don't think extending it to 10-12 heats would be wise. At most they should go to a 15 episode knock-out format but I think now we're at week 10 it finishing next week feels about right before it outstays it's welcome.
I do think splitting the filming of the heats and then the remaining stages into two blocks is logical - though no need for the to wait to air the heats before filming the second stage. That also adds a new risk of them becoming injury in the intervening period, somewhat negating the problem they're trying to solve. Ultimately injuries in sporting events happen routinely and are rarely preventable - they're just a fact of sporting competition.
