So you think an organizer can assume that every spectator will take care of his own safety, that there are no people without knowledge, people who are just stupid, people who are drunk etc.? In France spectating a rally is for free, which makes it much more accessible and interesting for locals, it's not like in WRGB where local people who are not very interested are kept away by huge entry fees. You have to keep in mind that most of the people who watch a rally cannot estimate the danger so well, a lot of occasional and new spectators. So yes, when an accident happens on a spectator area, and spectators are on a place that's marked as safe by the organizers, the organizers are responsible for it, 100%. So yes, you can blame the organizers when there is an accident, how funny is that... Outside the public areas designated by the organizers it's a completely different story of course.
