If we take the half reactions as given (so ignoring Maurice's insight about the stability of the species at different pH), the answers are in the comments.
[Ed V] If you write the equilibrium expressions, the second one has hydrogen ion concentration to the 4th power in the denominator while the first one has hydrogen ion concentration only to the second power. So changing hydrogen ion concentration has more effect on the second equilibrium.
and
[Poutnik] If you formulate Nernst equation for a particular half-reaction, you can easily derive the rate of potential change with changing pH.
Intuitive answer?
For each turnover in the forward direction of R1, two $\ce{H+}$ ions have to come together. Increasing the $\ce{H+}$ concentration by a factor 10 (lowering the pH by one unit) will make that 100-times more likely. For R2, you need four $\ce{H+}$ ions. Increasing the $\ce{H+}$ concentration by a factor 10 will make that 10,000-times more likely.
The pH dependence will be the same no matter whether you formulate an acidic or basic half reaction. You can write R2 as a basic reaction,
$$\ce{VO3^- + 2H2O + e- <=> VO^2+ + 4OH- \tag{R5}}$$
and instead of four $[\ce{H+}]$ on the left side you have four $[\ce{OH-}]$ on the right side. Lowering the pH by one unit would in turn lower $[\ce{OH-}]$ by a factor 10, making it 10,000 times less likely that four $\ce{OH-}$ ions would come together. So written as R2 or as R5, this reaction is more sensitive to changes in pH.
Reaction vs half reaction
Both R1 and R2 are half-reactions that would not attain equilibrium unless they are combined with a second half reaction. For a half-reaction, you could discuss the reduction potential and its dependence on pH. Or you could combine both half reactions with the same other half-reaction (which should be independent of pH to keep things simple).
