The fact that he playes his normal systems does not mean that he did not prepare many openings. The preperation is not about the first move but later and Fritz may try many options against the normal systems of kramnik so I believe that kramnik prepared many lines against them. The line with Bf8 from the second game is probably one of them and kramnik knew that Fritz is going to fall into that positional trap. He did not prepare all the game because preparing better positions is probably enough for him to have good winning chances and it is better to prepare a lot of better positions then to prepare a small number of full games.
