Default Starting problems

Ok a weird one. Just recently the car sometimes wont start, it will go to ignition but wint tuck over at all but after around 10 minutes it wuill suddenly start! What could make this happen? 99% of time it starts its jus happens now and then. Battery is ok? Imobiliser? Alarm or bad earth i dont know.happened twice so far!
