They didn't say it's because of wet road. It's Saturday's first stage and crowds are usually huge (and crazy) in Spain so I bet crowd issues rather than road conditions. Originally Posted by KKS

it seems the full wet was definitely the right choice for SS8

So let's list it (since we'r waiting anyway) Originally Posted by KKS

TUR - Paddon faster, Lappi crash

=> Lappi wins 4 vs 1 on speed, with 1 hard to judge (POR), and that's not even going into stage wins or other indicators
Let's write it straight. The main reason you now suddenly don't like Lappi is cause he is going to Citroen.

It would be interesting to know the weather conditions on the stages. The forecasts were showing that the rain would get heavier towards noon. Would the first stage have been very wet? Will the full wet tyre be now even a better option?

You can't say how wet it is based on drops on windscreen. Don't see much standing water on the road and in any case it can be very different just a few corners away.
