Hi. Bought a F430 last year with ceramics. 28k miles. Had a PPI on the car. Highlighted front discs needed doing. Pretty sure this was just from looking at them. There are other methods (eg weighing) but I would recommend a PPI as a start.

It really depends on how the car was driven
My discs lasted 100k km and at the time I replaced them due to rust, they were still at c 50% so would have lasted a lot longer
I did quite a lot of track days in my Scuderia during the 25k km I owned it and the discs were perfectly fine when I sold it (can’t remember the use %), in total that car had c 77k km on the clock . I did always do cool down laps when doing track days, but they were used reasonably hard on normal laps
