Eh, I consider ex-GP to be guys who started in GP and had most of their careers in GP. Corser, Haga, Laconi, Byrne, Fabrizio, Haslam, and Xaus were all journeymen in GP with stints of 2 years or less. Rolfo was the only other one who went straight to GP and he only lasted one year.
So really it's only Biaggi, Checa, Tamada, and Hopkins that had a significant career in GP's. All the other guys couldn't really be called career GP riders.
