More often than not, it can be difficult to picture the contrast in sensor measurements just by going through a spec sheet. The photograph here might give you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the S1R and FH22.

Clearly, both of these cameras have different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The S1R due to its bigger sensor is going to make shooting bokeh easier and the Panasonic S1R will produce more detail having its extra 33MP. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop shots a bit more aggressively. The more recent S1R provides an advantage when it comes to sensor tech.
