Lots of good info in this article. The best bits a

1) "The Delta IV is the only launch vehicle that, by
design, sets itself on fire during its ignition sequence."

and:

2) the information that Boeing has added to its catalog
a Delta IV Medium with six solid boosters that will be able
to meet the 20-metric-ton CEV launch mass requirement.
This might be an indication that the company doesn't expect
any more $200 million-a-copy Heavy launches after those
currently planned.
