Philippe Streiff (26 June 1955 – 23 December 2022) was a French racing driver. He participated in 55 Formula One Grands Prix, debuting on 21 October 1984. He achieved one podium, and scored a total of 11 championship points.
A pre-season testing crash at the Jacarepaguá circuit in Rio de Janeiro in 1989 with AGS[1] left him a quadriplegic and thus using a wheelchair, with the quality of the care he received in the aftermath having been called into question,[2] even if the accident itself was so serious the roll-bar broke on impact.[3]
In early 1994, Streiff made a bid to purchase Ligier in partnership with Hughes de Chaunac.[4] The bid had the support of the similarly Renault-powered Williams F1 team, who intended to turn Ligier into a 'junior' team. The bid was unsuccessful.
Belgian Luc Costermans, who had broken the World blind road speed record in late 2008, dedicated his record to Streiff.[5][6]
Streiff died on 23 December 2022, at the age of 67.[7]
