The races showcased grand touring cars adhering to two categories of regulations, GT1 and GT2, and awarded driver and team championships in each category.

1998 FIA GT Championship
Klaus Ludwig and Ricardo Zonta won the GT1 Drivers' Championship for 1998
The GT1 championships were won by Klaus Ludwig and Ricardo Zonta of the repeat champions AMG Mercedes, while the GT2 title was awarded to Olivier Beretta and Pedro Lamy of Viper Team Oreca.[1] Subsequent to the season, the GT1 category was eliminated from the FIA GT Championship due to insufficient entries for 1999.
