Brighten up your work conference calls with these car-themed backgrounds

Ah yes, the video conference call. The by-product of a lockdown world where many of us find ourselves rooted to make-shift desks in bedrooms, hallways and sheds as we battle colleagues in a silent game of interior design one-upmanship and the esteemed title of fanciest floor lamp.

Fear not though, fans of automotive escapism, for TG has trawled its recent archive and resized some of its favourite images in a handy 16:9 aspect ratio so you can display with prominence your love for All Things Car to teachers, friends and your less learned colleagues.

There’s the Lotus Evija, the McLaren P1, an Ariel Nomad up a snowy mountain, and some bloke called Freddie Flintoff hurling himself off a dam in a Rover Metro, if you like to portray yourself as a bit of an adrenaline junkie.

Simply right-click on the bottom half of your chosen image, and ‘Save image as’, before uploading to your conference call provider of choice.
