2010 FIA GT1 Navarra round

The 2010 FIA GT1 Navarra round was an auto racing event held at the Circuito de Navarra, Los Arcos, Spain on 23–24 October 2010, and served as the eighth round of the 2010 FIA GT1 World Championship season. The eighth round of the championship had originally been scheduled to be held in Durban, South Africa, but difficulties in completing the circuit in time forced the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) to relocate the event to Navarra.[1] The event shared the weekend with the Superleague Formula series.

Championship leaders Michael Bartels and Andrea Bertolini of Vitaphone Maserati were able to extend their points lead with a sixth-place finish.
