Well, at the rate of wear thus far, the next (3rd) set of pads would wear the rotors half the amount of the total wear or 28-26.6 = 1.4, then 1.4/2= ~0.7mm. Taking 26.6-0.7 = 25.9mm and the rotors will just be shy of being in spec at the end of the next set of pads.
Of course, rotor wear is a lot like the stock market in that previous performance is not necessarily a good indicator of future performance (but its all we have to go on).
