You're right - further down it says the WF will include 2 cars from the Last Chance Qualifier. (But I think it's 34 cars in total, not 34 plus 2 from the LCQ...) And I am pleased that it's no longer called the Consolation Semi.

40 cars now, as 32 Chris Farnell has cancelled.

The bends are steps so you'd struggle to put a chair on them, unless you can get at the top. I wouldn't fancy your chances of getting a chair down on the back straight, or having a great view if you do. Can't remember what the home straight is like, other than there's a grandstand on it. One or two people won't make much difference.
