Not Pirelli's fault. The tyres were made for low deg so that faster lap times could be done by the cars. Instead, teams are choosing to do slower lap times, and only one stop. The cars are well and truly capable of doing faster speeds, as we saw during FP. Sucks that teams have chosen to take the conservative approach. Again.
To fix this issue, FOM should mandate 3 tyre changes, not just the one, during a race. Teams/drivers then wouldn't have to conserve tyres, and drivers can push on at full speed. Which is what everyone wants to see.
