My question is, were these engines sealed on Thursday? I do not believe the cars were placed in a secure compound over night. Is it normal SOP for teardown to be delayed until the next day?

Charlie ~ At many races, that is SOP, the big one being at Indy. From my prior experience, I can tell you that the engines were sealed. I don't have first-hand knowledge of what happened in Vegas.
