Off season is fun sometimes .

Alonso is out with comments about how Lance could be world champion some day , as he's got the chops .
He makes his point , saying he's shown some fine wet weather driving .

Most sites covered it with a very muted tone of implied underlying sarcasm that was friggin' hilarious .


Best comment of all , though , came from Ralph Shoe , who , when told of Lance being touted by Fred to be WDC material , said " Yeah , and F1 cars can fly ." .

I thought immediately of the race last year where Lance's team mate flew over his rear tire .
Ralph likely missed the irony entirely .



I also saw another article that asked which driver had a net worth more than ten times that of Lewis .
Lance stands to inherit dad's $3.8 billion .
