Thank you both for your comments. I have to revise my question because the book states that left crosswind would be better and act as a restoring force and that was initially what I did not understand as both of your answers did actually confirm my thoughts. The same book also says that in an engine failure case in a max crosswind condition between V1 and Vr, the upwind engine would be more favourable to lose. Now, I am a little bit confused. Any inputs are greatly appreciated.
