Philippe Pierre Streiff (26 June 1955 – 23 December 2022) was a French racing driver and motorsport official who competed in Formula One between and .

Early life and career

Born on 26 June 1955 in La Tronche, Isère, France, Streiff embarked on his motorsport journey that would eventually lead him to Formula One.

Formula One career

Over the course of his career, Streiff took part in 55 Formula One Grands Prix, making his first appearance on 21 October 1984. During this period, he achieved one podium finish and accumulated a total of 11 championship points.

Tragically, a crash during pre-season testing at the Jacarepaguá circuit in Rio de Janeiro while driving for AGS left him quadriplegic and reliant on a wheelchair. The accident, which caused the roll-bar to break upon impact, sparked concerns regarding the adequacy of his subsequent medical treatment.

Other ventures

From 1993 until 2001, Streiff was instrumental in organizing the Masters of Paris-Bercy, a kart racing event conducted in collaboration with the FFSA.

In early 1994, he joined forces with Hughes de Chaunac to launch a bid for ownership of Ligier. Backed by the Renault-powered Williams F1 team, which intended to establish Ligier as its 'junior' outfit, their attempt was ultimately unsuccessful.

Death

Streiff passed away on 23 December 2022 at the age of 67 in Puteaux, Hauts-de-Seine, close to Paris.

Legacy

Belgian driver Luc Costermans, who set the World blind road speed record in 2008, dedicated his accomplishment to Streiff.
