Fritz does not see a win for white.
The best score for white was 4.91 after 12 seconds.
I guess that Fritz cannot win against itself and it is a proof that fritz does
not see a win for white and that Fritz can tell you how the draw is achieved.

If I am wrong then please post the win for white when you give Fritz to play
against itself at tournament time control.
