Why do bike helmets cost more than a couple of hundred quid?
But on a bike your helmet protects you from elements, lightweight materials to increase comfort at speed, aerodynamics come into play etc.
I guess I'm struggling to think what extra you'd want when you're sitting in a car already protected from the elements with heating controls. But then again people race in open-topped cars so those things may come into play.

You can buy basic OMP helmets for <£200, that have the ratings, but people want fancy names and fancy features, just like motorcyclists do.
