During a police raid, Max Hauke was hit with the syringe in his arm. He and teammate Dominik Baldauf were sentenced to five months in prison.
- It ruined everything for us. I thought we were a family and friends, but we weren't, Stadlober tells VG.
She has not spoken to neither Hauke nor Baldauf since the strike in Seefeld last year.
- I've known them since we were young, for over ten years. You think you know them, but no. I was shocked, I never want to see them again.
All the coaches and people around the national team were fired after last year's World Cup. The two gentlemen got their sentence. But even Stadlober was penalized when the opportunities for income collapsed.
- It is difficult to find sponsors. Everyone thinks that I was also drugged.
The current season was somewhat shortened when the World Cup final in the US and Canada was canceled. For Stadlober, the season has been lined with less good results, which has been a continued negative effect of her finances. According to VG, she won 300,000 in prize money. Despite this, she has decided to continue with the 2022 Olympics.
