The Circuito de Navarra is a 2.44-mile (3.92-km) raceway near Los Arcos, in the northern province of Navarre, Spain, an hour and a half road trip from Bilbao. The circuit opened its doors in 2010 with a MotoGP race and has hosted numerous events for the Superbike World Championship, the F4 Spanish Championship, and the FIA GT1 Championship, among many others. The climate in Navarre is humid and temperate, slightly Continental, with pleasant temperatures for racing year-round. There are five motorsports tracks in the Circuito de Navarra complex: the main raceway, a karting circuit, an autocross track, a Skidpad, and an off-road track.     

  
The Circuito de Navarra runs clockwise over a highly technical 15-turn layout full of fast-paced straights and pointy corners where drivers' maneuvering skills face a test to their limits. The fastest sector is the front straightaway, which starts from the exit of turn 15 and ends in the fast sweeper corner one. Drivers reduce their speed on turn two and keep on downshifting to pass the multi-apex corner three. Turns four and five elevate speed to take drivers to the tight left-hander at six. Corner number seven transitions into the 60-degree turns eight and nine, separated by a high acceleration straight. The last stretch snakes left and right with varying turn angles until re-entering the front straight to go full throttle to the finish line.
