Well no, but that's where e =mc2 comes in doesn't it? To move mass at twice the speed takes more than twice the energy.
E = mc^2 is the rest mass/energy of a particle. It's the non-linear wind resistance and friction that means it takes proportionally more effort to go faster. Also probably the body is less efficient at max effort or something.
