My questions regards tire wear and I would appreciate any answers. Is there any way to see how worn your tires are? Or an estimated lifespan? Will Mr Stig-man tell me when to pit?

Don't know about Stig telling you to pit, but there is no tire wear gauge in the game. It's basically done by feel and monitoring tire temperatures. When you feel the car starting to lose grip, or the tires consistently overheating due to too much sliding around, that's your cue to come in for fresh tires, basically the same as in real life. For longer races it really pays to be smooth and not push the tires too hard. In shorter races go as hard as you can but beware that if you overheat the tires you lose grip so pacing yourself will pay off in more consistency and better lap times.
 
It's been confirmed by the head of studio over on the official project cars forum, that a tyre wear element is coming for the HUD. It was originally left out for realism sake, but there are a lot of people calling for it due to not everyone using cockpit cam and being unable to see the motec display.
