A new tab opens by default as a blank tab (about:blank). If that isn't the case then an extension has changed that behavior.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

You can look at this extension to set which page to open in a new tab:

You can open the about:config page via the location bar and do a search for bing via the Filter at the top of the about:config page.
You can reset all bing related prefs that appear bold (user set) via the right-click context menu to their default values.
