"We will be looking to score points for the third event in a row in Jordan next week. It has been a great start to the year for both Jorge [Perez Companc – my co-driver] and I and hopefully this can continue over in the Middle East," he noted.
"I don't know too much about the conditions in Jordan but I have heard it will be dry and quite smooth which will be a big change from Argentina last month.
"I have been racing in the Argentine Rally Championship before this event and we won the Rally de Bariloche so I am feeling very good coming into this event.
"The plan will be to again score more points for the Munchi's team and stay ahead of
Suzuki in the Manufacturers' Championship. This will be a new rally for everybody which could help our result and I am looking forward to starting the event next Friday morning."
Luis Perez Companc meanwhile wants points too and he will be especially determined after retiring early on in Argentina.
The event in the Middle East will be a special one for him as well as it will mark his 30th WRC start - a feat only 106 WRC drivers have achieved. It will also be his second and penultimate appearance in this year's WRC after he scaled back his personal programme due to business and family commitments.
Luis isn't underestimating the task though and goes straight into the event having competed in the opening round of the
FIA GT Championship at
Silverstone from April 18-20.
"Jordan is going to be a very challenging event with the fast and slippery stages. I have heard that only a few drivers have competed in the Middle East which will make for an interesting competition because none of the drivers have pacenotes to look over, so it will be a fresh start for everybody," he continued.
