Richards to return to BAR

According to reports in the People, former British American Racing boss Dave Richards will return to the team in an attempt to help put the Brackley based squad back on track. Apparently Richards has been in discussions all week regarding his return and it is expected that the team will confirm his return at next weekend’s Monaco GP.

"This is fantastic news for the team and a sure sign they are sparing no effort to make BAR the most professional team on the grid," a source close to the team told the People. "With Richards' wealth of experience we can look forward to a calming influence that will get the results we need to keep Button in the team." [Editor's Note: Where does this leave de Ferran?]
