Esports Nations Cup Trackmania Invites Revealed

The Esports Foundation has revealed the latest set of representatives and invitees for this year’s Esports Nations Cup, this time in Trackmania.

The first iteration of the nations-based esports tournament will take place between November 2 and 29.

We’ve already seen a similar announce for another car-based game in the Rocket League Esports Nations Cup rosters.

Now, it has been confirmed which 16 countries have been directly invited to compete in the $250,000 Trackmania event.

The Trackmania tournament at ENC will begin on November 19 and will conclude with the playoff final on November 22.

All 32 players will first compete in a group stage, featuring four groups of eight players.

Then, 16 players (the top four of each group) will compete in a single-elimination playoff bracket. During the Playoffs, once players hit the points threshold, they must then secure a round win to claim the match.

Esports Nations Cup 2026 Invited Nations and Players

Trackmania at the Esports Nations Cup will feature 32 individuals representing their countries.

However, 16 players and nations have already received direct invites to the event.

The Esports Foundation used Ubisfoft’s Trackmania Elite Cup Rankings to determine the highest-ranked players from each nation.

The 16 invited players and nations/territories are:

• France – Alexandre ‘Binkss’ Touche
• Germany – Nico ‘GranaDy’ Gyarmati
• Australia – Patrick ‘Mudda’ Radisich
• Czechia – Filip ‘eLconn21’ Šprungl
• Canada – Carl-Antoni ‘Carl Jr.’ Cloutier
• Belgium– Alister ‘Soulja’ Adutwum
• Poland – Hubert ‘mime’ Dziedzic 
• Great Britain – Thomas ‘Pac’ Cole
• Switzerland – Sébastien ‘Affi’ Affolter
• Netherlands – Mees ‘Stufts’ Jenema
• Hungary – Péter ‘Pusztitopako’ Varga
• Sweden – ‘Molle’
• Slovenia– ‘Jann’
• Slovakia – Marek ‘tween’ Pacher
• Russia – Vsevolod ‘NiTech’ Kozlov
• Türkiye – Cem ‘Cemko’ Akyürek

Spare a thought for Germany’s Dennis ‘Massa’ Lotze, who is third in the rankings one place behind GranaDy, just missed out.

Also, the French trio of Maxence ‘Nayko’ Cloud, Gwendal ‘Gwen’ Duparc, and Youen ‘Otaaaq’ Egler are all in the Trackmania top 10 but couldn’t compete with first-place Binkss.

Also Croatia and the United States were the closest nations to miss out direct qualification with Robert ‘Razii’ Čupković and Flimsy ranking 40 and 45 respectively, just behind Türkiye’s 36-rated Cemko.

However, online qualifiers set to take place June 19-21 will fill the remaining 16 spots in the competition, with each nation allowed up to two players in total at the ENC.
