The Renault R23 was the car with which the Renault team competed in the 2003 Formula One World Championship, driven by Jarno Trulli and by Fernando Alonso, who replaced Jenson Button. It was named simply R23 because the team no longer had any connection with Benetton. The chassis was designed by Mike Gascoyne, Bob Bell, Tim Densham and John Iley under Pat Symonds, and it was powered by the RS23, an unusual 111 degree ten-cylinder engine meant to lower the centre of gravity, which proved too heavy and unreliable, so Renault returned to a 72 degree V angle for the R24. Alonso took pole position in Malaysia, the youngest driver and first Spaniard to do so, and a B specification car appeared in Britain.
