F1RS tire wear

    I've now been driving F1RS for 2/3 of a week and so far I love it!  I
bumped up the skill to PRO level and turned on damage to intermediate.  I
ran an Imola race and placed 3rd after starting 22nd (no qualify) and last
night screwed up a couple of times at Australia and worked my way back up to
sixth, from 22nd again.  Both races at 25% distance.  Love this game!
    Is there a way to check tire wear on my car while I'm driving (a'la F5
key in Nascar 2)?  Once when practicing at Brazil I kept loosing my back end
in every corner so I limped back to the pits to find both rears completely
worn out.  Tonight while practicing some at Buenes Airies after 17 laps I
came into the pits to find my rears about 50% worn.
    Also, how much tire squeal is aceptable?  In Nascar 2 I expected to hear
it every corner to know I was pushing just hard enough, but does F1RS
dictate a bit more finese?

    Thanks for the help!
