British teams competing have been confirmed with the participation of reigning champions Liverpool F.C. and runners up Tottenham Hotspur.FC Midtjylland and Rangers F.C. did not continue in the series in 2010, but new team GD Bordeaux were ready in time to make their debut at this event.
Support races included the Dutch Supercar Challenge, the SPEED Series and the World Sportscar and Grand Prix Masters.
Three practice sessions were held before the race; all were held on Friday and all were 30 minutes in duration. Tottenham Hotspur (Craig Dolby) finished on top of the rain affected session one with a time of 1:46.585. Session two had much better weather, with A.S. Roma (Julien Jousse) leading the timesheets with a 1:36.819. Session three was a rainout with no times being recorded. SC Corinthians (Robert Doornbos) and A.S.
