A video has since emerged on social media that appears to show Hamilton dancing next to a blonde woman in a nightclub.
The seven-time world champion, who was dressed in a red vest and white sunglasses, got cosy a lady by putting his arm around her while dancing.
Reports from the Daily Mail claim the blonde is Russian model and influencer Violetta Bert.
The beauty, who boasts 806,000 followers on Instagram, has been posting snaps of herself enjoying the life of luxury in Monaco for the last week.
Violetta, 29, was previously rumoured to be dating Chelsea star Mykhailo Mudryk.
The pair never confirmed their relationship before supposedly breaking up last year.
Violetta was then linked to former Leeds midfielder Weston McKennie and they reportedly enjoyed a romantic break together in the French Alps.
Though she seemingly denied the allegations, writing on social media in January: "Information for fake rumours. I didn't dump anyone and I'm not dating anyone. And I have never confirmed any relationship."
Hamilton is thought to be single despite rumours claiming he enjoyed a date with actress Sofia Vergara earlier this year.
He has previously been in a relationship with model Camila Kendra and singer Nicole Scherzinger.
Hamilton's night out at a high-end club came after an awkward Grand Prix in Monaco.
The Brit crashed during a practice session and constructors then faced a race against time to get his car ready for qualifying.
And in the main race, Hamilton was involved in a frosty exchange with his Ferrari colleagues after being told to "push now, it is our race."
He said post-drive: "It wasn't very clear, the information wasn't that clear. I didn't really understand 'this is our race'.
'I didn't know what I was fighting for. Am I fighting for the next spot ahead?
"In actual fact when I look at the data I wasn't near anybody ahead.
"I used up my tyres a lot in that moment but I was so far away from them.'

Conor Maynard opens up about mental health struggles following Traitors paternity scandal
Conor Maynard has opened up about his mental health struggles after he was alleged to have fathered a baby with The Traitors star Charlotte Chilton. Last year, the reality star claimed the singer was the father of her child following a one night stand. Chilton then claimed that Maynard refused to acknowledge their daughter. In March, Maynard said he took a paternity test in the presence of Chilton's legal representative that confirmed he is not the girl's father. Speaking on This Morning on Friday (30 May), the singer said that he almost had a 'massive panic attack' when he found out the baby was not his, saying the news was 'not a moment of instant relief'.

Washington wants to give O'Neill 'something to think about'
Striker Conor Washington says he wants to give Northern Ireland manager Michael O'Neill "something to think about" as he looks to return to 32-year-old is a free agent and looking for a new club after an injury-hit spell at Derby after his last international cap against Denmark in November 2023, Washington was sidelined for four months after he injured his ankle in a "freak accident"."Would I like to be involved? Of course I would," Washington said about a Northern Ireland return. "The plan is to get myself a club, get myself back playing and give Michael something to think about." With his run of injuries and falling down the pecking order at Derby County, Washington admits he "hasn't done enough on the radar" for a Northern Ireland recall."I'm not naive about that, so I've got no doubt that if I get myself fit and playing at a decent level then the door would remain open, I hope. "I'm sure people will be ringing Michael to get references over the next few months so hopefully I can get back in his thinking. "I feel like I'm in a good spot, I feel good physically, I've trained for a few months and have played Under-21s games so I can kick on for one more campaign if the chance arises." Bradley looks 'unplayable' While Washington is one of the senior players at the disposal of O'Neill, Northern Ireland's squad has shifted towards a focus on youth after several players broke into senior Bradley is perhaps the most high profile of those players after helping Liverpool win the Premier League. Washington has been impressed by the young players, and says Bradley has "everything you want" and "fantastic to watch"."He'd been thrust into the limelight with Northern Ireland so it probably gave him the chance to assess his game, get stronger, quicker. He looks unplayable at times."He came in as a scrawny 16, 17-year-old and to see him now on the biggest stages, not just getting by but affecting games, getting assists, putting Mbappe in his pocket. "It's an enjoyable experience as you get older to see players like that flourish."
