# Campionat del Món de motociclisme de 1998

La temporada de 1998 del Campionat del món de motociclisme fou la 50a edició d'aquest campionat, organitzat per la FIM. Mick Doohan va aconseguir el seu cinquè títol consecutiu, amb un domini aclaparador de les Honda, que guanyaren totes les curses excepte el Gran Premi de Gran Bretanya, guanyat per Simon Crafar amb una Yamaha. El debutant Max Biaggi va convertir-se en un dels pocs debutants que guanyen la seva primera cursa, creant moltes esperances per a l'afició italiana, que mai no es van arribar a complir. Bona temporada dels pilots catalans Àlex Crivillé i Carles Checa, que van ser tercer i quart respectivament, obtenint diverses victòries.
En 250cc la temporada tingué un final polèmic, on Loris Capirossi va treure de la pista en l'últim revolt de l'última cursa al seu company d'equip Tetsuya Harada quan aquest anava primer i s'anava a proclamar campió del Món, aquest fet provocar el final de la relació entre el pilot italià amb Aprilia.
En 125cc va seguir el domini de les Aprilia i els pilots japonesos.
