What happened to Advantage CFD?

Post

It appears that the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) consultancy to the cars is gone.

Advantage CFD’s website now hosts the following message:

"Following a review of Advantage CFD activity, the provision of external CFD consultancy services will be terminated on 31 March 2007. This will enable the Honda Racing F1 Team to devote all of its CFD resources to its race objectives."

So Advantage CFD was part of the buyout by Honda.

It seems 'external CFD consultancy' is not really of value to a big corporation. At least the last sentence alludes to the staff being absorbed into the Honda F1 programme.
