"I think certainly we have a little bit in hand. I wasn't happy with the lap that I had, and with the rhythm and the balance yet, so there's more to come.
"But that's probably the same for everyone else.
"But I do hope I can make a bigger step than the others. If it's close, then it's good, it means that you can do something.
"Hopefully it stays that close, but we'll find out tomorrow."
