Medalists

Water motorsports was held at the Summer Olympics twice: in 1900 (the event is not considered official), and in 1908.

To date, water motorsports is the only motor sport to have ever been an official Olympic event. Motor sports were subsequently prohibited by the Olympic Charter, though the ban has since been lifted.
