Your engine is immobolised by the anti-theft system ... try your spare key ... or it will need plugging into a diagnostic computer to be reset i'm afraid ..

let me know

Thanks for the answer,

I tried the spare key without success.
Looks like the computer is waiting for something. Could it be a sensor problem.
Also during those few seconds if a press the throttle nothing happen !
