This tall, intense French driver came to the fore in 1980, when an acrimonious Formula 3 season ended with a splendid win at the final European round at Zolder. The following year he concentrated on winning the French F3 championship in his Martini, and took fourth in the European series, joining the two-car AGS Formula 2 team for 1982. Streiff's season was up and down, due in part to the arguments that raged over the technical regulations, but he finished the year strongly to take sixth place in the final standings.

In 1983, AGS and Streiff really got to work, despite the team's chronic shortage of funds, and the Frenchman carried the fight to the dominant Ralts, though he had to wait until the very end of the 1984 season before scoring a long overdue and well earned win. He did, however, have the fillip of a Grand Prix outing for Renault in the 1984 Portuguese GP. His F3000 campaign with AGS in 1985 was well funded yet strewn with mechanical failures, but by now he had been elevated to the Grand Prix ranks, taking over the Ligier of de Cesaris in mid-season and scoring a fine third place in the end-of-year Australian GP. With Ligier missing the South African GP because of the political situation, Philippe drove for Tyrrell, and he joined the Ockham team full time in 1986 to handle their Renault-engined cars. He drove well enough on occasions during the next two seasons, but was generally outpaced by his team-mates Brundle and Palmer, the latter claiming the non-turbo honours after a switch to Cosworth power in 1987.

Streiff was taking a gamble when he joined the tiny AGS GP team for 1988, but at least it was an environment with which the Frenchman was familiar, and early in the season he caught the eye with some spirited performances, most notably at Imola, where he qualified and raced superbly, only for engine problems to intervene. Philippe was looking forward to another season with the team in 1989, but in a pre-season test at Rio he crashed heavily, sustaining serious back injuries which, possibly due to a lack of prompt medical assistance, resulted in him being left totally paralysed.
