It would show a history of disability.

If they are sending the Decision by post then it will probably be the end of the week before you hear.

I doubt it, we certainly haven't seen anybody's claim for ESA affected by a negative PIP result, even if you had received a PIP Mobility award it would still be insufficient on it's own to result in a similar ESA award.

It usually takes the DWP 5-8 weeks for the DWP to process a Tribunal Decision. I would phone them next week to confirm that hey have received the Tribunal's Decision Notice.
