While I usually confine my posts to RWD, I've seen this one before, many times.
Your ignition switch is sticking. Common to all 850 and 70 series.
Eventually if it persists the electrical part of the switch will need replacement ($30-something for the part). You can confirm that it's this if you hold the key when starting the car- release it just to the point where the starter is not engaged. The ABS light will stay on among others, and the accessories will not work. If the key is nudged back to the normal "ON" or II position, you'll have everything working normally.
Good luck with it....
