Leave it to your insurance company- that's whatwe pay premiums for. They will want to make sure they recover what they can.
From what you say, the car that was doing 60 was to blame for the damage to the other vehicles and his/her insurer will have to pick up the bill.
I'm a bit confused by your point 1- you say the second car was the cause of the accident. Is that the car that you also referrd to as the third car?
The fact that it's a company car shouldn't be a problem - it probably helps.

What we normally ask is how many impacts did you feel?
If you felt two, then it is fair to assume that both cars hit you, if you felt one, then the car at the very back has most likely shunted the middle car into you.
However, as pointed out, your insurance company will sort this out - we generally look to recover off the car that was immediately behind you in the first instance, and if they later establish that they are not at fault, they recover it from the car behind them
