A major majority of F1 fans do not believe Ferrari has what it takes to return to second place in the constructors' championship by the end of the season.
A nightmare race for the Italian squad last time out in Brazil saw it drop to fourth in the standings after both Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc failed to reach the chequered flag.
Rivals Mercedes and Red Bull achieved podium finishes with Kimi Antonelli and Max Verstappen respectively, resulting in Ferrari dropping from second to fourth place in one swoop.
32 points separate Mercedes and Red Bull in second and third, while Ferrari is a further four points down with three rounds remaining.
RacingNews365 asked you, the fans, who you believe will finish second in the standings - and a large portion of the votes went the way of Mercedes.
Only 13 per cent of fans think Ferrari can overcome the deficit in the final three rounds of the campaign and return to the runner-up spot.
