Maximilian Lahnsteiner (born 16 August 1996) is an Austrian alpine skier who won the Europa Cup overall title in 2021.[1]
The victory in the general classification of the European Cup 2021 had made him acquire the right to be included in the Wunderteam for the world cup competitions, but a serious injury to his left cruciate ligament in training in Val Senales, caused him to lose the inaugural race in Soelden, for which he was selected, and the entire 2021-22 season.[2]
However, in October 2022 he was again called up with the Austria national alpine ski team, once again for the inaugural race of the 2022-23 season in Soelden.[3]
Lahnsteiner has won an overall Europa Cup.[4]
