What is it they say - while the cat's away the mice will play?
It looks like Lewis Hamilton is making the most of being thousands of miles away from girlfriend, Nicole Scherzinger.
While she carries out work commitments in LA, Lewis has been hitting the town big stylee!
The F1 driver was seen leaving London's Funky Buddha nightclub in the wee hours looking a little worse for wear.
And he wasn't happy about being greeted by a bunch of photographers, flipping them the bird as he walked out.
He then headed to a nearby hotel with a group of mates where he was lapping up plenty of attention from the opposite sex, or so it seemed anyway.
He was spotted cosying up to a mystery female, but his spokesperson has since confirmed she "is just a very good friend of his from back home", according to the Daily Mail.
Still, we can't imagine a certain Pussycat being happy about that one.
