Jul.23 (GMM) Williams has confirmed reports that Dickie Stanford is returning to grands prix in the team manager role.

At a very wet Hockenheim on Friday morning, Red Bull announced a new sponsorship deal with LG, already F1's official technology partner.

The Korean electronics giant's logo will appear in three places on the RB6 car, as well as on the drivers' overalls and helmet visors.

And at the press conference, LG's Seoul-based marketing chief Dermot Boden played down continuing speculation that South Korea's inaugural grand prix in October might have to be delayed.
