I'm willing to stand corrected, but I don't think that's true.

Frame rate is purely a graphics issue. Lag is a connection issue between client and server, which would determine how far you can travel in a given amount of time (because you may think you've gone X distance, but when the client and server resynch, the server's information wins and you might have only traveled X-Δx

Frame rate issues can happen concurrently with lag, however, giving the impression that frame rate is the cause of your slower speed.
