Tor searching being routed through Google

When I try to search in the default bar at the top of the page in Tor my search is being routed through Google.

Here is an example of what it says:

“Ours systems have detect unusual traffic from your computer network…[stuff]… URL: https://www.google.com/search?q=brave+community+forums&oq=brave+community+forums&aqs=chrome..69i57.2703j0j4&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

And it wants me to do a captcha.

Duckduckgo is my default search engine, but just to be sure I went in and removed all other search engines from settings. It still tries to route all my searches through google if I use that default search bar. If I manually go to duckduckgo.com I can search from there.

Why is information going through Googles search engine in Tor with no other search engines on my list?
