The 1998 UCI Road World Cup was the tenth edition of the UCI Road World Cup, cycling's season-long competition of the ten top-tier one-day classics. It was won by Italian classics specialist Michele Bartoli of the Asics–CGA team. Italian team Mapei–Bricobi won the team competition and placed four riders in the individual top-ten.[1]
Bartoli moved into the lead of the World Cup after his win in Liège–Bastogne–Liège, and claimed a second event win at the Grand Prix de Suisse. He ended the competition with 416 points, more than double the points total of the runner-up, Léon van Bon and a competition record with the point system in place since 1997 to 2004.[1]
