McLaren posted on Discord that their partnership with Tezos has expired, they published NFTs together for three seasons. Their web3 program will however continue in the 2024 season, details are yet to be announced.
Both Immortals and Club America were removed from Rocketfan. A fan token was never launched, but was announced by Socios 1+ year ago. Both sports brands don't appear as partners on the Socios' official website anymore, so I don't think a fan token is happening anytime soon.

My take on the new $CHZ tokenomics:

With the update, CHZ will be much more appealing to crypto people/funds/organizations and not just to retail traders. There was hardly any interest in CHZ from a DeFi/crypto audience so far and that might change with the new update. It will now generate an attractive APY, that can be used to create passive income.

Furthermore, the inflationary part is necessary to establish it as a layer 1 token. If the CHZ supply would be capped and it would be deflationary, everybody would just hold onto their tokens forever in hope that the price goes up. Deflationary tokens are a great store of value, but not a great solution for layer 1 tokens. As a layer 1, you need a vibrant token that runs your whole ecosystem. People need to spend their CHZ for gas fees, as liquidity provision, to participate in launches and so on, they can't just hold onto it forever or this ecosystem will be standing still.

I think before the whole transition to a layer 1 and the tokenomics upgrade, CHZ was a utility token for an app, something its founders envisioned in 2017/18 and it stayed that way for a long time. However, crypto has moved on: DeFi was not just a trend, it has stayed and has transformed crypto. There is a much higher potential usage of a layer-1 token with tokenomics appealing to DeFi traders and DeFi applications, whereas the usage of a utility token in an app is limited. I think it is a great step forward. 🌢️

Chiliz Legacy Chain was removed for 46 $CHZ fan tokens on Rocketfan, their supply is now purely calculated from Chiliz Chain data. 35 fan tokens remain with data from both chains, as they are not entirely swapped at the moment.
Chivas published two NFT collections "Genesis" (2021) and "Mexicanos" (2022). They are still displayed on the top of Chivas official website. All of the NFTs were 1-of-1 editions, they earned a total of 8k USD. Data was added to Rocketfan:

BtcTurk is seeing some big fan token inflows after switching to $CHZ chain, the fan tokens in their exchange balance are currently worth 8.5 million USD, which is a 1.4 million increase from two days ago. It is now much easier to arbitrage between BtcTurk and other exchanges.
