Philippe Streiff (born June 26, 1955) is a former racing driver from France. He participated in 55 Formula One Grands Prix, debuting on October 21, 1984. He achieved one podium, and scored a total of 11 championship points.

A pre-season testing crash in 1989 left him paralysed in all limbs and thus using a wheelchair, with the quality of the care he received in the aftermath having been called into question[citation needed],[1] even if the accident itself was so serious the roll-bar broke on impact.

He has since organised a go-karting event in Paris.

Belgian Luc Costermans, who had broken the world blind road speed record in late 2008, dedicated his record to Streiff.[2][3]

  1. ^ In truth 1989 would be the last year a GP was held in Jacarepaguá circuit, one of the reasons being lack of proper medical assistance.
