Clean ice = very good grip, if you're using studs obviously. In that case, you'd benefit from running first. The more cars that passes by that ice layer will eventually tear.
But should there be snow covering it, the first cars will sweep away the snow and the later cars will get to use the ice more.

I agree with that apart from the last sentence.
The car is clearly good, probably better than we all thought, but it's too early to say how good.
The all-Finn driver lineup looks a bit dodgy but they're all good drivers and apart from that Makinen hired experienced former MSport guys to design the car.

DMACK Tyres @DMACK_Tyres

There has been 1-2cm of overnight snow but the first stage is relatively clean - so @ElfynEvans has gone with five DMACK DMG-ICE2 tyres

Today without bigger drama for Rally1, so expecting tomorrow lot of retirements maybe, because there is NEVER rally without issues. Let's see guys, favorizing Ogier for the win probably, depends on...
