Lewis Hamilton has been backed by fans to secure victory in the Hungarian Grand Prix despite having a three-place grid penalty.
The seven-time world champion qualified on the front row after missing out on pole by just 0.012s but received a three-place grid drop to fifth for impeding Oscar Piastri at the end of Q3.
Nevertheless, in a RacingNews365 poll, 34% of voters expect the Ferrari driver to recover from fifth and claim yet another win at the Hungaroring.
Polesitter Lando Norris received the second-most votes with 25%, while George Russell, who starts sixth on the grid, received the third-most with 17%.
Interestingly, Russell received more votes than both Charles Leclerc, who starts third, and championship leader Kimi Antonelli.
Just 7.9% of voters are backing a Max Verstappen win, with the Dutchman and Red Bull generally having struggled in Hungary.
