i had a similar problem back in the day when my battery was getting crap. it turned over fine but wouldnt fire when the engine was warm. replaced the battery and i never had the problem again.
i would look at either the battery itself or the connections/earthing to begin with.

Go to a garage with a battery tester, most places do free tests but might try and scam you into a new battery which ever thr result

i have the same problem. starts in just two turns in the morning but when warm it takes about 2 - 3 seconds to start. not a battery issue for sure because starter is turning well and fast but engine doesnt fire up. after about a few cranks it starts fine. problem persists even after a rebuild. im guessing fuel pressure since the FPR gauge drops to zero as soon as the engine is turned off. i cannot say for sure as it starts fine in the morning!
Does anyone know where the non return valve is located in the fuel line/fuel pump assembly? im guessing that is faulty and letting the fuel back in the tank when pump is switched off.
