You might want to check all fuses (especially the one for the fule pump) to ensure they're intact. It could be a nice simple/cheap fix...
Good luck!

1. Most cars with inertial switches on their fuel pumps have an access port somewhere in the car to reset them. It should be easy to do once you find the location.
2. If you smacked the wall hard, make sure that you check ALL the engine, transmission and differential mounts. I broke ALL of them except the right differential mount in a sideways slide into a concrete wall.
3. Be prepared for more issues than you think once you open up the repair job.

Regarding the mounts, I have broken the engine mount on the drivers side and one diff mount is gone as well. I have ordered the engine mount and the diff mounts are coming from a scrap, both of them. Could a broken engine mount be the problem? Don't get me wrong guys, I dont want to run the engine and rev it for fun in a smashed car, I just wanna make sure I will think of everything since my next auto-x is in 3 weeks.
Btw. I have "finished" the car just 4 hours before this sh*t happend, tuned the VAFC2, installed Spoon wheel nuts and SOF gauge pod with gauges...this makes me wanna cry...

I was going to suggest the same. There are at least two sets of fuses, one inside the car on the drivers side, one under the hood by the battery. Check them all.
Good luck!

What do you think about berlina pearl black?

I found the location of the inertia switch. Its the circled one.
And resetting it is pretty simple as well.
Hope that's your only problem with starting it...
