Why? Engine power is a function of atmospheric density. That is why superchargers were invented to slap a band-aid on that fact to try and overcome it.

I don't know where you are from Crump but there's no such thing as a standard day in England. We have a hosepipe ban here, yet as I write it's chucking down a ton of rain - typically British.

According to your logic the German engines are also affected, so they must be producing loads of power over in standard France but by the time they arrived in sunny England they were down to a couple of hundred HP.
