What is a grid in Formula 1 racing?
A Grid refers to the position on the race track that the racers would start their race with. The person starting first is said to be on Pole Position or No. 1 position. To determine the position in which the drivers would start their race, usually on Saturdays a qualifying event is held. During this, the drivers have to drive as fast as they can around the track for one fast lap and the driver who can set the fastest time would start on Pole. This includes a number of other rules and criterion but in short, the fastest driver during qualifying starts on pole during the race on Sunday.

Where do race car drivers relieve themselves?
They don't! You have to be sure to go before a race, and MAKE yourself go even if you don't feel like you have to pee because as soon as you strap in to that harness, your bladder is getting squeezed. If you are doing a long endurance race / through the desert / through the night, etc, etc it's not uncommon if it's an "emergency" to just go (number one of course) and worry about cleaning the race suit later. I cant imagine ever having a number two emergency and then sitting in that for hours....ewww. :)
