Because it is so heavy. and they want it to go quick. Correction.

The Roman racing chariots were extremely light and small, with bands of leather used for the flooring to reduce weight. Four horses made for a more exciting race, although there were also races with chariots pulled by two horses. The emperor Nero was said to have driven a chariot with ten horses.
