Yes.

These are the rules that apply AFAIK:
Rules for the auto-braking
Auto-braking will be applied if:
- The amount of draft savings exceeds a certain threshold (this threshold is variable according to the gradient. For instance, it is set at 38% for flat. These thresholds are configurable server side, but there is no point in detailing the values given that they are not visible for you in the HUD. Maybe something to improve in the future…)
- AND your speeds exceeds the speed of the bike in front of you
- AND your power drops below your last 10 sec. average power (signalling you are slowing/relaxing).
- AND your power does NOT exceed X% above your last 10 sec. average power (currently X is set at 110%. It can be changed if needed).
So to put it in simple terms, if the system detects you are “relaxing” your power but your speed is above the rider in front in HIGH draft situations, it slows you down.
Other situations:
- If you are travelling at a much higher speed then the rider(s) in front of you, you will never get auto braking. Currently the limit is set at 3km/h (it can be adjusted).
The two last ANDs are contradicting, so the actual logic is uncertain.
