The 1983 Dutch Grand Prix was held at Zandvoort on 28 August 1983. It was the twelfth race of the 1983 FIA Formula One World Championship.

The 72-lap race was won by René Arnoux, driving a Ferrari, with team-mate Patrick Tambay second and John Watson third in a McLaren-Ford. Alain Prost and Nelson Piquet collided midway through the race while challenging for the lead, allowing Arnoux to move into second in the Drivers’ Championship, eight points behind Prost. However, this would turn out to be Arnoux’s last Formula One victory. Derek Warwick finished fourth to score his and the Toleman team’s first points. Mauro Baldi in the Alfa Romeo and Michele Alboreto in the Tyrrell completed the top six.

The victories with Rene Arnoux at the German and the Dutch GPs confirmed the strength of the new single-seater and the Scuderia won the Constructors’ Title again that year:
