Toyota said Tuesday that Kobayashi will race in the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix on Sunday. The Japanese driver made his F1 debut in Brazil on Oct. 18, finishing ninth after qualifying 11th.

Glock cracked a vertebra and cut his leg in an accident during qualifying for the Japanese GP earlier this month. The German's injuries left Toyota with only one driver in that race.

Jenson Button of Britain has already clinched the drivers' championship with his Brawn GP team taking the constructors' title.
