The original calendar was released on 25 March 2008 and had a standalone event on the 31st May – 1 June at the Valencia's Ricardo Tormo circuit. However, on the 18th April 2008, it was confirmed that a deal had been agreed for a GP2 event to run alongside the new European GP at the Valencia Street Circuit instead of the original date at the Ricardo Tormo circuit.

Also, for the first time in the history of GP2, two races were held at Monaco.

All of the races supported the Formula One Grands Prix indicated by the relevant flags, except the round at Valencia which supported the 2008 European Grand Prix.

    “In the works of man, everything is as poor as its author; vision is confined, means are limited, scope is restricted, movements are labored, and results are humdrum.”
