Trackmania Elite Cup / EWC

Trackmania Grand League is not the 2026 story. Qualification for Esports World Cup and Esports Nations Cup ran through the in-game Trackmania Elite Cup: ten Black-track Cups of the Week, no registration, servers open to everyone (ranking closed 31 May 2026). Ranked/COTW is preparation and, during Elite Cup, the actual qualifier. Community cups remain other competition. TMGL-era structures are retired.

Where are you right now?

Your next step

Step 1 of 2

Race official Cups of the Week / Elite Cup

2026 Elite Cup needed no registration. Competition servers were open. Ranking closed 31 May. Next season will republish COTW/Elite rules — that remains the amateur door.

In-game step — not a WinQueue listing

Need
  • Ubisoft / Trackmania account
Do
  • Launch Trackmania and join the official Cup of the Week.
  • If Elite Cup is between seasons, COTW is still the practice/official weekly; wait for the next ranking period.
Where
None — join the official cup server

Qualification for Esports World Cup and Esports Nations Cup ran through the in-game Trackmania Elite Cup: ten Black-track Cups of the Week, no registration, servers open to everyone (ranking closed 31 May 2026).

Before you start

  • Trackmania on PC or console as Nadeo lists.
  • Set correct in-game nationality if chasing ENC (one player per nation).

Other ways to compete

Not part of the official Trackmania Elite Cup / EWC ladder — parallel open / third-party competition.

Official paths and third-party cash competition are not the same thing. Expand a stage for instructions, eligibility and links.
