This is not an R problem.  Standard LaTeX is squeamish about putting
figures on a pages where the fit is "tight".

Put

\renewcommand\floatpagefraction{.99}
\renewcommand\topfraction{.99}
\renewcommand\bottomfraction{.99}
\renewcommand\textfraction{.01}

in the document preamble.  You might have to play around with the
values a bit, make sure that \textfraction and the others add up to 1.

Best,

Tamas
