Sensors doesn't give GPU temperature - Lenovo Thinkpad T470p

I have a problem detecting my GPU temperature. I have a Lenovo Thinkpad T470p which has a NVIDIA® GeForce® 940MX 2GB GDDR5.

Using sensors the output is:

iwlwifi-virtual-0
Adapter: Virtual device
temp1:        +38.0°C  

thinkpad-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
fan1:        2290 RPM

pch_skylake-virtual-0
Adapter: Virtual device
temp1:        +39.5°C  

nouveau-pci-0200
Adapter: PCI adapter
GPU core:     +0.60 V  (min =  +0.60 V, max =  +1.20 V)

coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Package id 0:  +40.0°C  (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 0:        +43.0°C  (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 1:        +53.0°C  (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 2:        +41.0°C  (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 3:        +41.0°C  (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)

acpitz-virtual-0
Adapter: Virtual device
temp1:        +40.0°C  (crit = +128.0°C)

The fields regarding my GPU are the one under "nouveau-pci-0200", but as you can observe there is no temperature there, only the voltage.

Someone can tell me why this happens and if there is a way to obtain the temperature of my gpu? I also tried to use nvidia-settings and nvidia-smi, but the don't run since i'm not using nvidia drivers.

Thanks in advance.
