One can tamper with the data or the power meter itself. If a cheater is faster than a competitor pushing more watts, his team will respond with the usual BS: the bike's aerodynamics, stiffness and its super-innovative tires made him faster... However, mandatory power recording could become quite valuable over the long run. The peloton should be large enough to allow data scientists to detect the abnormalities (unless all the teams reach an agreement to cheat consistently ;)). Once a history is built over a decade or longer, "unphysiological" power output could be detected quite easily. |
