I call bullshit on the 330 watts figure. Wiggins FTP was around 420-430 watts, and he was pretty damn slippery, Campanaerts must’ve been averaging something like 400 watts to take the record, even taking the benefits of altitude into account.
Campanaerts must’ve been averaging something like 400
Assuming the same Cd.A as Wiggins, going 1% faster with 17% less air density suggests that 370W would be in the ball park. Depending on how well his power holds up at altitude, that's like doing 400-420W at sea level.
