It is a real shame that Ubisoft Nadeo hasn't really marketed Trackmania outside of Europe (they mostly focus on just France). Streamers have been driving a ton of growth in the game (particularly in the US) because it is so intuitive and enjoyable to watch. Unfortunately the competitive scene has quite a bit of catching up to do as it is still very France and Germany centric. They are making strides to do that with the new world tour but it is going to take awhile before some new players get up to the level of the primarily European professional base.
