Look at it this way—neither is Scuderi.
It looks plausible to me, did you read the whole
wikipedia article? Generally, the air compressed in one compression cycle is not necessarily used in the corresponding ignition cycle. As for the valve timing, not much compression takes place in the lower part of the cycle it's mostly in the upper part anyway, the compression cylinder is oversized compared to the ignition cylinder, and valve lift, timing and size can all be tailored to the requirement.
All IMHO of course, standard disclaimers apply.
