With only the power file to go on, I would bet you're exactly right.

If you compare, the difference between average and normalized power int the 2 files, the smaller variance in the second race tends to support that.

I race 45+ and Cat4. The 45+ races which have a lot of Cat 2's and some Cat 1's and former pros are always smoother and faster through corners, and thus higher speeds for the same average watts
