The H rated tyres are fine for me and as Skids said it's about the cost.
Now....... I thought pirelli sponsored the series ??
Using Race tyre prices is usless to compare against a H rated road tyre
which is all it is.
Suppliers are cashing in on them FULL STOP!
Have a look at other H rated road tyre price's

But as normal it will be a pirelli did this and pirelli that response....
It's not pirelli it's the middle man

I'd echo all of that Steve, good post.
