Born in Anderstorp, Sweden, Stigefelt won the Swedish road racing national championship twice in the 125cc category, in 1994 and 1995.[2] He debuted in Grands Prix in 1997, racing in the 250cc class until 2000.[1] In 2001 he had his only season in the premier class, the 500cc category, finishing twenty-second.[1] After two more seasons spent in the 250cc class, Stigefelt moved to the Supersport World Championship in 2005, finishing eighth in 2006.[3]

In 2005 he founded the Stiggy Racing team, that competed in the Supersport and Superbike World Championships until 2009.[2][4] From late 2011 to late 2012, he was the RW Racing GP team manager competing in the Moto3 Championship.[2][5][6] His team finished runner-up in 2012 with rider Luis Salom.[2]

Stigefelt was appointed team manager of the Caterham Moto Racing Team for the 2014 Moto2 season and the team finished sixth in the Championship with rider Johann Zarco.[2][7] After the Caterham Moto Racing team was disbanded, Stigefelt was chosen to manage the Sepang International Circuit’s new Moto3 team known as the SIC Racing Team.[2] In 2015 the team contested the Moto3 Championship with Malaysian rider Zulfahmi Khairuddin and Czech rider Jakub Kornfeil.[2] The SIC Racing Team competed in the 2016 Moto3 season with riders Jakub Kornfeil and Adam Norrodin.[2]
