Trackmania Nations

Trackmania Nations, also called Trackmania Nations: Electronic Sports World Cup or Trackmania Nations: ESWC, is the third game in the Trackmania series.

Gameplay
The game features a new environment, Stadium, which is only available in Day mood. There are 100 tracks in the solo campaign, all on Race mode. Players are also able to play as cars painted in their nations colors for the first time. However, you cannot respawn at checkpoints. Also, P2P upload is disabled, so you cannot share and import custom cars and avatars.

The track editor returns as well as lot of features from Sunrise, including advertisement panels in which sponsors stream ads through the internet. One new feature is the leaderboard which ranks players based on points and best times. The homepage shows the top five players.

Another feature is the ladder system where players can represent the country of their choice to promote competition.
