Yes.

I discovered this when I was a young man working as a police officer. During a car chase, in the hot southern summer night, when the pedal stayed on the floor for long periods of time, I found myself sweating. Man, it's getting hot! I figured out soon that a/c turns off at full throttle.

S650 Mustang does, too.

Wide Open Throttle

I believe it does it at 80% of WOT.

I guess try not to go wide open throttle especially if you give importance/priority to AC comfort.

Slows down my lap times considerably
