He faces losing ground to title rival Sebastian Vettel of Ferrari, who is one point ahead and starts from pole.
"We can't do anything in the race. We can't follow or overtake a car that is as fast or faster," said the Briton.
"It is going to be a battle to get on the podium - and unless something happens with the others that is probably going to be where we are."
Hamilton's remarks are founded on the difficulty of overtaking on the tight and twisty Hungaroring.
The 32-year-old said his unsurpassed record on the track, where he has won five times in 10 races, was "not relevant".
"It has been a good track. I was hoping to make the difference today but I wasn't able to," he added.
Mercedes have struggled compared with Ferrari all weekend but when Hamilton set the fastest time in the second part of qualifying it raised hopes he might be able to take a record-equalling 68th pole.
