It is not on old stages, the test was at Serra do Caldeirão near Mú stage. Last year, only Mini (Armindo at Lagoa) and Meeke/Sordo (Montim and São Pedro) testing on North. The teams prefer testing to the true rally. But it be more interesting to see testing near Fafe :)

Yes, I saw it. At that moment, I felt that this quotation was coming :) . Everybody thought that it was on North. If you see only the photo that Rasantes posted, you can't believe that the test was on the South of Portugal. I have to say that even Portuguese people on Portuguese forums thought the same.
By the way, last year Nasser tested in Ponte de Lima (I guess he'll test again this year before Fafe). I remember it well because I was thinking of going there to see him. I also had in mind the Prodrive's tests because I took some photos of the Mini while the team was working on it after the car, with plenty of dirtiness, arrived at the Service Park.
So 2 of 3 are most of teams :D .

I already thought that QMSWRT is having budget issues because they're testing with a race car, as I didn't saw reg plates from Instagram photos. But Fafe explains it. :)

Another note from Østberg's test; he was codriven by Torstein Eriksen, the young guy who is usually codriving FT Larsen.
