the inductees' achievements are put on display in the hall of fame and there are various displays inside it. The inaugural induction gala dinner ceremony to honour inductees took place at the Four Seasons Hotel Yorkville, in Toronto, Ontario, August 19, 1993, and since 2019 has been held annually as part of the Canadian International AutoShow in Toronto after it was staged as a late-year unincorporated ceremony for most of its history. There was no induction in 2009 as a result of the economic constraints caused by the Great Recession in North America forcing the CMHF's board of directors opting to postpone the ceremony to the following year. Since 1993, a total of 230 individuals from the world of motorsport have been inducted, with between five to fifteen auto racing figures added each year. The vast majority are men; there have been eight women who have been elected to the CMHF. Kay Petre became the first woman racing driver to be named an inductee in 1995, and the two most recent women to be added to the CMHF were Nathalie Richard and Anne Roy in 2020. The first inducted physician was Hugh E. Scully in 2000. Hydroplane drivers Robert Theoret and Jean Theoret are the only two brothers to have been inducted individually in 2006 and 2010 respectively. The 2018 class was the first to composed wholly of print and broadcast motorsport journalists. The CMHF contains nine organizations and on seven occasions there have been two or more inductees grouped for their combined work. Of the international inductees, they include Carroll Shelby (2009), Bobby Rahal (2010), Sid Watkins (2010), Michael Andretti (2011), Mario Andretti (2012), Nigel Mansell (2013), Jackie Stewart (2014), Multimatic Motorsports (2015), Legendary Motorcar (2016), Honda (2017) and McLaren (2019).
