The photos were released in a series of tweets by the show's presenters and on The Grand Tour Twitter account and show the three stars recording the first of their shows in Johannesburg, South Africa.
The show is recorded in a large tent that, along with the presenters and crew, will travel to locations across the world including Europe and America.
The website will show 10 consecutive Thursday Night Football games, which are also being shown on US television networks CBS and NBC, making the sport available to an international audience. Last year, Yahoo streamed an NFL game from London's Wembley Stadium which was watched by viewers from 185 different countries.
“[Twitter] is built around live events already,” said Brian Rolapp, the NFL’s executive vice president of media. “We want to see how they use the unique platform, and syndicated tweets all over the Internet is going to be interesting.”
From New Zealand beating Australia in the final to Japan's defining win against South Africa, the Rugby World Cup 2015 has been recorded as the second most-watched rugby tournament after England got through to the final in 2007.
A record number of television audiences tuned in to watch the games.
ITV told the RTS: "Overall the tournament reached 32 million viewers which is 55% of the UK population."
RTS Futures assembled a panel of pioneers for its sold-out event at London's Hospital Club in late April, "I made it in... digital". An enthusiastic, youthful audience was eager to learn from their experiences of working at the cutting edge of new media. It learnt, perhaps surprisingly, that television – the dancing dad at an achingly hip party – still has a big role to play in the digital age.
