Like Minato already answered:
in TM2 Canyon + TMU Knockouts, which are played every Saturdays, there is always one warmup and one official round per map. The last placed driver or all players who didn't finish in the official round, will be knocked out and then the next map starts. Maps do not repeat during one Knockout event. You can't download the maps somewhere and when a new mappool is ready to be played in Knockout, the maps are for all players unknown, which is ofcourse very exciting. (In TM2 the mappools repeat every 3rd, in TMU every 7th week).

There are also TimaAttack Knockouts sometimes. You have 1:40 time per map. Map length is between 20 and 30 seconds. Last placed player gets knocked out as usual and the map will be changed.

Knockout in ESport, I would love it! :P

Ye, don't ignore me, please. :D
As you can see, there is a mode for Canyon and TMUF already, so I guess it won't be that much of a problem to set up a KO-server in Stadium.
The only thing that is mandatory and is still missing are maps.

Edit: Looked it up on MX and the offical mapsearch for a Stadium-KO will start at the end of the beta... so it might take a while. ^^
