Aston Martin AMR23

It is the third Formula One car entered by Aston Martin in the 21st century, and was driven by Lance Stroll and Fernando Alonso.

[4][5][6] The AMR23 immediately proved to be far more competitive than its predecessor, as the Aston Martin team were able to pick up 23 points from the opening round in Bahrain, with Fernando Alonso scoring the team's second ever podium finish in third place, and Lance Stroll finishing in sixth place, despite the two teammates colliding at turn four on the first lap.

The following race at the 2023 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix marked Aston Martin's first retirement with Lance Stroll retiring on lap 16 due to engine issues; however, Alonso, having served a penalty earlier on for lining up on the wrong grid position after the formation lap, remained competitive, placing third once again behind the Red Bulls of Max Verstappen and Sergio Pérez and taking his 100th podium in his Formula One career - being the sixth driver in the sport's history to do so.

Meanwhile, his teammate Stroll found himself being knocked out of Q1 more frequently during the latter half of the season, and in Singapore, withdrew due to a serious crash in qualifying.

Despite a performance drop late-season, Alonso was able to claim a closely-contested third in Brazil, winning out against Pérez with his last lap overtake earning him the FIA Action Of The Year Award.
