Chariot Racing is not in the modern Olympics primarily because it is considered dangerous, both for the participants and the animals involved. While it was a popular sport in ancient Greece and Rome, modern Olympic values emphasize fair competition and athlete safety. Additionally, the logistical complexities of organizing chariot races, along with the lack of widespread popularity today, further contribute to its absence from the Olympic program.
