Like I said, he was distracted by the car on his left which was also going for it. He looked left, thought "WTF?! OMG!!!" and missed the cyclist.
Driver on his left (our right) saw the cyclist and decided to drive straight through the roundabout knowing, that driver on his right (normally the one which has the right of way if there's no oncoming traffic) will stop giving way to the bicycle, because the was no other option for the cyclist than turn either in the road the elderly driver was coming from or cycle past him in opposite direction (sure there was always an option of cyclist making a u-turn on the roundabout and that's why both car should wait for their turn).
