# Campionat del Món de motociclisme de 1988

La temporada de 1988 del Campionat del món de motociclisme fou la 40a edició d'aquest campionat, organitzat per la FIM. Eddie Lawson va recuperar el títol mundial davant Wayne Gardner i també van destacar amb les seves victòries els joves Wayne Rainey i Kevin Schwantz. Les motos V4 utilitzades eren extremadament potents i rígides, pel que provocaven espectaculars accidents on el pilot era literalment escopit per la màquina.
L'alzireny Jorge Martínez "Aspar" es va convertir en l'últim pilot a guanyar dos campionats en una mateixa temporada. Per altra banda, en 250cc, Sito Pons obtingué el primer títol pel motociclisme català davant de Joan Garriga.
Aquella temporada es va implantar el sistema de puntuació similar a l'actual, on puntuaven els 15 primers classificats.
