The Foster's signs? I therefore presume the race was sponsored by Fosters then. As it wasn't Silverstone, it should either be Melbourne or Imola.

Now I seem to remember that Imola was a sunny race (if the picture was taken during the race), while I remember Melbourne to be dull.

So is it Melbourne, by any chance?

It's Hungary but since Lew got the other 75% right I'll defer to him for a question.

Looks like an RB1 from 2005 as driven by Christian Klein and I'll guess that it's from the Hungarian GP.

Is that when Allan McNish crashed his Toyota in practice for the Japanese GP at Suzuka in 2002?

Correct driver, correct year. But it's not the Brickyard.
