.. not (necessarily) so, NotSo ....

At "normal" V1s .. fine .. but Vmcg is determined for nil wind (FARs) and a minV1 takeoff in a strong crosswind does not address an engine failure in these conditions ... be prepared for a significant increase in real world Vmcg as compared to certification Vmcg (other conditions being kept constant).
