The 1998 Canadian Grand Prix was a Formula One motor race held at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve on June 7, 1998. The race, contested over 69 laps, was the seventh round of the 1998 Formula One season. It was won by Michael Schumacher, however the race is probably best remembered for the crash on the first lap involving Alexander Wurz and Jean Alesi, which resulted in the race being red flagged and restarted, only for another collision to take place and the race being started once again under the safety car.
