22 Racing team owner, Scott Steckly announced that Alex Tagliani will be back behind the wheel of the No. 18 EpiPen/Lowes/St-Hubert/Spectra Premium sponsored car in 2018, marking the fifth anniversary of their collaboration.

Competing for 22 Racing, Taglinai won five races, captured four pole positions, 16 top 5’s, 32 top 10’s and led 1,222 laps in total.

Talking about Tagliani, Steckly said, “Alex is a fierce competitor and is always working hard to improve himself and his team. We look forward to seeing Alex on the podium with checkered flags again in 2018.”

“I’m very excited to be back with 22 Racing next year,” said Tagliani. “This year was not the season we wanted because after the 2016 season having run for a championship we had high hopes. We had a lot of bad luck this year. We didn’t capitalize on the races we were strong as I made two mistakes, so not a clean season but I think we have the potential to run strong. It should be an exciting winter knowing we are going to push hard for a championship in 2018. There is still more news to come but exciting day when you know you are going to work with the same group of people again.”
