Max Hauke (born 29 August 1992[1][2]) is a cross-country skier from Austria. He competed for Austria at the 2014 Winter Olympics in the cross-country skiing events.
During the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships 2019, he was apprehended during a raid by Austrian police and charged with doping offenses alongside his teammate Dominik Baldauf and three other athletes from Estonia and Kazakhstan.
Soon after, a video surfaced showing Hauke being caught red-handed by the Austrian police in the middle of a blood transfusion as part of the act of blood doping.[3][4] The policeman, who leaked the video in the private group of an instant messaging app, subsequent to which the video spread on the Internet, was charged with malpractice. The unidentified officer may face up to three years in prison, if found guilty.[5] In a lengthy interview to the Swedish newspaper Expressen, Hauke thought this to be the first such depiction in sports.[6][7]
In July 2019, Hauke was handed a four-year ban by the Austrian Anti-Doping Commission (ÖADR).[8]
