The Foxer

Warm-up Foxer (Where am I?)

I'm at the same latitude as one of Portugal's autonomous regions. I can see two suspension bridges. I'm in a country that has produced two Formula One World Drivers' Championship champions. Roughly thirteen miles away is one of the places pictured in today's Feature Foxer. I can see an invasive plant that came originally from South Africa. I'm standing in the shadow of a lighthouse. I'm less than a mile from a SAM launch site active between the mid Fifties and and mid Seventies. This location featured in one of Ubisoft's 2016 releases.
