Yes, the reason is that there isn't enough room in Monaco or whatever..

At that point P1(and even P2) drivers must be able to continue on Sunday.. They are the ones that bring money and fans to rallying.
Imagine then some privateer who spends huge amount of his own money to participate in Monte, drives OK pace in this difficult rally and then can't start on Sunday because some factory driver made a risk to go only with one spare tire, gets 2 punctures and still can drive on Sunday only because he is factory driver...
