It all happened on lap 2 in the last turn - some sort of Parabolica. Right turn with rather big radius, so the speed was high enough. At the RRC site they write that Yuri defended his position, the competitor has no way to go and pushed the car from the track. Yuri's car moved sideways, hit into the guardrail junction by the driver's side and then rolled. There's no mention weather there was any tyre barrier.
Yuri was 49 and he began racing only a year ago.
