How to convert miliseconds to datetime with format: mm:ss:msmsms (minutes:seconds:miliseconds) without year , month an day [duplicate]

This question already has an answer here:

Is there a simple way to convert milliseconds in a dataframe to a datetime without year, month and day?

I have successfully converted a column of milliseconds to datetime. However, I want to get rid of the year, months and days.

I did this:

df['Laptimes'] = pd.to_datetime(df['milliseconds'], unit='ms')

But my values are now formatted as: "1970-01-01 00:01:38.109".

"1970-01-01 00:01:38.109"

I want to have: "01:38:109"

"01:38:109"

Just call the time() method on the datetime object:

df['Laptimes'].time()
