Felipe Massa was unlucky to have had such a random accident in Hungary, but it was one option from an infinite list of 'what if' randomness
When you consider the infinity of possibilities a driver works with every time he's out on track, it's not all that surprising that accidents like Felipe Massa's occur every now and again.
It's also natural that people should be trying to find links between this accident and Henry Surtees' in the F2 race just a few days earlier.

But there are no links, it's just the cruelty of randomness, one of the key features of the universe, probably even how it was created.
