The month of May in the Trackmania World Tour was marked by the organization of Comic Con Baltics, the first major tournament of the season. Its results, along with those of the Trackmania Monthly Cup, significantly changed the World Ranking.
STUFTS, FIRST MAJOR CHAMPION
The second Trackmania Monthly Cup kept all its promises shwocasing a very high level of play among more than 70 participants. They had several additional weeks to practice on the official map pack. Ultimately, it was the English player Robert “Epos” McKay who won the final, ahead of Canadian Carl-Antoni “CarlJr” Cloutier and Dutch Mees “Stufts” Jenema. This great victory allowed Epos to temporarily take the lead in the World Ranking before Comic Con Baltics.

FIRST CHANGES AT THE TOP OF THE WORLD RANKING
The Trackmania World Ranking saw significant shifts between April and May. Alexandre “Binkss” Touche had to relinquish first place to Mees “Stufts” Jenema, the winner of Comic Con Baltics. Robert “Epos” McKay climbed from 7th to 3rd place, ahead of Poland’s Hubert “mime” Dziedzic, who moved up two spots.
While a few players have emerged at the top with over 1000 points each, the rest of the ranking remains highly competitive, with many positions still up for grabs for securing a slot in the Playoffs. The ranking could change dramatically with the introduction of the new official map pack and the five tournaments scheduled in June!
