Monza. The lap record is in the 153 mph range and was set by David
Coulthard in 1995 with Williams.
This is just my guess since F1 cars are generally the fastest on a
non-oval.
The only other track I didn't consider was Le Mans. Perhaps I answered
the question on that note... ;)

>I may be wrong but..., I think Spa (the old 8 mile Spa) had the fastest race lap.

Race: Pole: Fastest Lap
Pedro Rodriguez Jackie Stewart Chris Amon
BRM P153 March 701 March 701
BRM 3.0 V12 Ford Cos. DFV 3.0 V8 Ford Cos. DFV 3.0 V8

You can see how things were different back then by noticing that the
fastest lap was faster than qualifying.
The 1985 GP at Silverstone, which has the fastest qualifying lap of all
times was slower during the race:
