List of Sidecarcross World Championship records and statistics

The FIM Sidecarcross World Championship is an annual event, organised by the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme (FIM) and held since 1980.

Previous to that, a European competition was held from 1971 onwards, first the FIM Cup and then, from 1975, the FIM European Championship. All races held since the competitions interception in 1971 were staged in Europe and almost all riders hail from this continent. As World Championship winning riders is concerned, the competition is dominated by a small number of countries, with World Champions coming exclusively from Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Latvia and Belgium.
