Los hombres muestran mayor atención con el 35 por ciento, frente al 24 por ciento de las mujeres. El grupo de 30 a 49 años registra el 34 por ciento de interés, mientras que las clases medias alcanzan el 38 por ciento.

Brasil y Argentina encabezan las preferencias como posibles campeones con 14 y 13 por ciento respectivamente. España recibe el 8 por ciento y México el 7 por ciento.
